Innoprise Corporation Sdn Bhd. [ICSB] was established
in 1988 as the investment arm and the holding and management company
of Yayasan Sabah or Sabah Foundation.
ICSB is acutely aware
of both its social obligations and also environmental responsibilities
to future generations. The conservation and wise use of tropical rainforests
has become one of the great issues of our time. ICSB therefore strives
to manage its forest lands in an integrated and sustainable manner,
for their greatest long term net benefits to the people of Sabah. Thus,
ICSB combines harvesting with major programmes of natural forest such
as silviculture, replanting, research, conservation education and eco-tourism.
With timber products
as one of its core business, ICSB has designated its wholly owned subsidiary,
Innoprise Wood Products Sdn Bhd (IWPSB) to spearhead its diversification
activities into further downstream in the furniture manufacturing sector.
IWPSB was incorporated in 1990 and started manufacturing outdoor furniture
at the end of 1992 in response to the government’s call for the
development and diversification of the downstream activities.
IWPSB is one of the largest
exporter of outdoor furniture in Sabah. To date the Company’s
products are sold in the United Kingdom, Europe and Japan.
With the huge resource
backup from its parent company, IWPSB is poised for further expansion
by increasing her capacity in the near future towards meeting market
demand and consumers’ requirements.
