Developed in collaboration with UK-based Levidian, the LOOP technology converts methane into high-quality graphene and hydrogen-rich gas, unlocking new value from existing gas infrastructure while enabling cleaner and more efficient industrial applications.
Building on this first-in-region deployment, Gas Malaysia is now advancing a graphene ecosystem focused on real industry adoption.
Through its “Revolutionising Industries with Graphene” platform, businesses are enabled to test, validate and co-develop graphene-based applications across key sectors including manufacturing, infrastructure and energy, accelerating commercialisation and industry uptake.
“Gas Malaysia is not just introducing new technology, we are enabling industry adoption and building a platform for innovation, collaboration and commercialisation,” said Azli Mohamed, President & Group Chief Executive Officer of Gas Malaysia Berhad.
The initiative positions Malaysia as a launchpad for graphene innovation in ASEAN, with strong potential to scale deployment across the region and support the development of a broader advanced materials ecosystem.
Aligned with Malaysia’s national agenda, this development contributes to strengthening industrial competitiveness, accelerating technology innovation, and advancing the nation’s transition towards a more sustainable, high-value economy.
