GROUP OF COMPANIES
MANUFACTURING LOCATIONS

4. The APM brand of automotive parts is
poised to grow more dominant in the
regional area.The scene is also set for
the company to achieve further global
recognition.
APM’s goal has always been clear; to
be a competitive regional automotive
components manufacturer in the
mid-term and a global supplier in
the long-term. Starting off as a small
Malaysian-centric automotive parts
manufacturer, APM has expanded to
become a major supplier, first
to regional and now increasingly to
global markets.
In recent years our establishment
of manufacturing sites in ASEAN
member countries, particularly
Vietnam and Indonesia, have started
to yield results.
Continuous efforts to streamline
manufacturing operations and use
efficient alternative sources of energy
have already yielded positive
results. We are confident that we can
overcome the challenges ahead and
remain ahead.
VISION AND MISSION
02
The symbiotic relationship between
human and the environment is made
more apparent by the recent weather
events that echoed around the world.
As the world industrializes the effects
on the environment magnifies; green
house effects, toxic emissions and
discharges cause havoc to mother
earth.
At APM we recognize that our growth
efforts must in no way compromise the
need to protect our environment. We
believe that through our commitment
and action we can make a difference
in achieving a clean manufacturing
environment.
All of our manufacturing units
have been awarded the IS14001
certification, an added testimony that
we are serious about our commitment.
APM will continue its efforts to be a
responsible corporate citizen.
In addition to taking care of our
environment, APM is also committed
to maintaining a high standard in
occupational safety and health at the
work place. Our human resource team
is actively participating in providing
training on a regular basis to our
workforce.
APM’s comprehensive annual safety
and health programs include
continuous medical surveillance and
regularly conducted activities by
both external and internal teams to
improve the safety of the work area.

“Simulation has proven to be a time and cost-effective alternative to physical testing - allowing more design options
to be considered in shorter time frames. APM is seeking to further expand the use of simulation by bringing it
forward even earlier in the design process.
However, the challenges of implementing a simulation-based design strategy include the absence of an
engineering environment and process that can keep pace with the design team”.
