About Us

We started our journey in 1987 as a business specializing in direct sales of electrical equipment, including sewing machines. Over time, we realized that many of our customers struggled to unlock the full potential of their sewing machines. That insight inspired us to establish Pusat Latihan Kraftangan Epal (Pusat Epal), where we began offering creative sewing courses to empower our customers and help them truly enjoy their sewing experience.

 

As we grew, our focus shifted from just selling sewing machines to something much bigger—education. We are now proud to be leaders in creative sewing education, offering skill-based training to people of all ages and backgrounds. Our collaboration with the Department of Skills Development (Jabatan Pembangunan Kemahiran) allows us to offer the Malaysian Skills Certificate (Sijil Kemahiran Malaysia - SKM) in Creative Sewing Arts at Levels 1 and 2. This milestone also led to the creation of Mostwell Academy, dedicated to nurturing creative talents through hands-on skill development.

 

Today, we are passionate about making sustainability creative and accessible for everyone. Through our Sew n Save Program and Green Sewing Solutions, we inspire individuals to repurpose, upcycle, and refashion old textiles into trendy, eco-friendly creations. Our easy-to-use DIY kits and introductory classes make it possible for anyone—even those with zero sewing skills—to transform unused fabrics into beautiful, functional items.

 

With a network of training centers across Malaysia, we are building a vibrant community of makers and eco-conscious creators. At EPAL, we believe in fostering creativity, promoting sustainable living, and helping people learn skills that bring joy and purpose. Together, let’s sew a greener, more innovative future.
