At present, Titan Chemicals own 10 integrated process facilities in Pasir Gudang and Tanjung Langsat in the southern state of Johor which has a total nameplate production capacity of over 2.4 million tonnes annually of olefins, polyolefins and other associated products. The company was formerly known as Titan PP Polymers (M) Sdn Bhd and changed its name to Titan Petchem (M) Sdn. Bhd. in December 2004. Titan Chemicals Corp. Sdn.
