Evonik has been active in Malaysia for many years and formally opened a local office in 1995. Today, our Malaysia hub - located in Selangor (Kuala Lumpur, Selangor) - connects us to customers across the country and the wider region.
In 2015 we relocated and expanded to Bandar Sunway to support growth and to consolidate leverage regional functions. The site now brings together commercial teams (sales, marketing, business services) but also a Shared Services Center, which provides IT, procurement, and finance services (including accounts payable, accounts receivable, general ledger, fixed assets, and cost accounting) for the wider Asia‑Pacific and European regions.
Beyond corporate services, Evonik Malaysia plays a role in our specialty solutions chemicals portfolio for local and regional customers. Core activities in the region include feed and lubricant additives, hydrogen peroxide, precipitated & fumed silica, personal and household care additives, coating additives, and high‑performance polymers -giving colleagues here exposure to a broad set of industries and technologies.
As part of Evonik’s global network, the Malaysia team engages with multinational, cross‑functional projects and benefits from a culture that values learning, mobility, and inclusion - within a company of 31,000+ colleagues worldwide.
Evonik stands out for its culture of trust, professionalism, and empowerment - an environment where individuals are encouraged to develop their capabilities, pursue meaningful opportunities, and actively shape their future.

Working in Malaysia
Malaysia offers a rich mix of cultural influences, modern infrastructure, and natural beauty. The country spans the Malay Peninsula and Borneo, known for its beaches and rainforests, and for its cultural blend of Malay, Chinese and Indian. Its capital, Kuala Lumpur, located in Selangor, is famous for vibrant shopping districts, colonial architecture, and landmarks such as the 451‑meter Petronas Twin Towers.
At Evonik Malaysia, employees work in a diverse and inclusive environment, collaborating in multinational teams and contributing to our shared purpose of improving life through specialty chemistry. As part of a global workforce of more than 31,000 colleagues, Evonik offers exciting opportunities for personal and professional development.
What makes Evonik special to me is the strong sense of collaboration within Strategic Controlling, where colleagues challenge me to think critically, bring new ideas forward, and continuously develop.
