Pt. Indorama is the first Rieter customer to receive all four Com4® Yarn licenses
On June 17th 2014, the handing over of all 4 Com4® yarn licenses - Com4®ring, Com4®compact, Com4®rotor and Com4®jet - to PT. Indorama was celebrated for the first time.
Mr. Norbert Klapper, Chief Executive Officer of Rieter, congratulated Mr. Anupam Agrawal, Director of Spun Yarns, PT. Indorama, on this success story and underlined the excellent collaboration and the relationship between Rieter and the Indonesian company.
One reason for PT. Indorama to invest in Rieter spinning technology was described by Mr. Anupam Agrawal as follows:
“The yarns spun on Rieter machines, Com4®ring, Com4®compact, Com4®rotor and Com4®jet, are the best choice for us and our customers."
Continual investment in latest technology
From being a pure ring spinner, PT. Indorama now operates air-jet, rotor and compact spinning machines and produces yarn from various raw materials and blends thereof.
Its latest venture is in Central Asia where a first fully-automated compact plant was commissioned in 2011 with Rieter blowroom, cards, draw frames and ring spinning machines. This will be followed by a second identical plant processing 100 % cotton. With the current investment in a complete plant with fully-automatic rotor spinning machines, PT. Indorama now covers all four spinning systems from Rieter.
The installed machine park in Indonesia, Central Asia, Turkey and Sri Lanka includes a total of 490 000 spindles with 300 000 spindles in Indonesia. The majority of its output is exported to the high-end markets and discerning customers in over 80 countries in Europe, the Americas and Asia.
By constantly operating with the latest technology, PT. Indorama is investing in the quality of its products and the satisfaction of its customers.
