1981
Despite the intense competition from market players, the
business operations of NTPM continue to grow over the years.
NTPM began to convert them into tissue papers and toilet
rolls and sold to the market directly. |
1983
NTPM has already established its own distribution network
under NTE, its distribution company to expand its domestic
market. It also began to set up sales offices throughout
Malaysia and sell directly to retailers which resulted in
significant growth in its sales. At the same time, it started
investing in transportation equipment in order to service
other market segments all over the country. |
1983
Mr Lee See Jin introduced a significant technology breakthrough
for NTPM by venturing into tissue paper production using
the de-inking system. The de-inking system allows NTPM to
produce higher quality paper from recycled wastepaper and
process them into tissue paper for end-user consumption.
With the new technology, NTPM was able to expand further
into the upper market segment servicing retailers and end-users
instead of only paper converters. By then, NTPM was able
to record sales exceeding RM 10 million. |

1986
With the continuous growth in its operation, NTPM began
to expand into Singapore. NTPP was set up. At this point,
the demand for NTPM’s products was well over its supply.
This has helped NTPM in surviving through the economic recession
then. In order to meet the increasing demand and growth
in its sales, NTPM continuously invest in acquiring new
machinery to increase its production capacity. |
