Its main competitors are Kimberly-Clark, Ansell, Allegiance and Microflex.

In 2020 during the COVID-19 global pandemic, strong demand for rubber gloves sent Supermax's share prices on a five-fold jump. Founder Thai Kim SIm recorded an estimated net worth of $1 billion at the stock high in early June 2020.[1]
