Malaysia

Leaf Resources and our project development JV partner Claeris, have spent significant efforts discussing and progressing potential biorefineries/second generation sugar (2G sugar) projects, enabled by Leaf’s Glycell process, in Malaysia.

Malaysia represents an exciting and long-term location for biomass and end chemical markets. Key memorandum have been signed with Leaf and Malaysian Government authorities (Agensi Inovasi Malaysia (AIM) and Malaysian Bio-economy Development Corporation).

Johor

A site in the State of Johor (on the Malaysian Peninsula) has recently been investigated. An established bio-park in Johor with substantial facilities, including utilities and potential product off-takers, has expressed interest in securing Leaf’s Glycell™ process as its 2G sugar platform.

Sarawak

Discussions with various state and local authorities in Sarawak continue to progress positively. The sheer size and scale of the potential Sarawak project mean that planning and decision making are progressing in line with the scale of the opportunity and further decisions on this project are expected.

BIO NEXUS STATUS

Leaf Development has lodged an application for Bio-Nexus status through a wholly owned subsidiary of Leaf Development, Leaf Malaysia OpCo Sdn Bhd.

Commercial Scale Facility

Leaf continues to advance the development of its first commercial scale facility in Malaysia, including now a site in Johor offering potential engineering and construction advantages. Malaysian federal and state governments and their agencies continue to support Leaf’s objectives. At the same time, Leaf is committed to exploring additional opportunities with new and existing partners who have identified the potential that Glycell™ 2G sugar process presents in reshaping the green chemicals industry.
