Felda Global defends tie-up with Nanokomp


Oil palm fruits are unloaded at a Felda plantation in Terengganu. Under a tie-up with Nanokomp,FGV will supply methane, a by product from its oil palm plantations, for conversion into ultra high grade advanced materials, graphene and CNT.

PETALING JAYA: Although it may be some time before Felda Global Ventures Holdings Bhd (FGV) sees its latest foray into the graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNT) industry with a Turkish group bearing fruit, the plantation conglomerate maintains that it is a worthwhile investment.

Group president and chief executive officer Mohd Emir Mavani Abdullah told StarBiz that FGV was constantly looking for specialised and niche areas of business that could further add value, particularly to its downstream business operation.
