PT Indah Kiat Pulp and Paper director, Hasanudin The, said this year’s pulp production will be increased to 2,4 million tons, higher than last year’s 1,98 million tons. Meanwhile, paper production is estimated to total 800.000 tons by the end of this year.

Hasanudin said, the production will thus exceed the factory’s capacity for pulp and paper, which is 2 million tons and 700.000 tons, respectively. This is achieved by optimizing the machines and increasing the production speed. He is also certain that the production acceleration can increase paper and pulp exports.

The Corporate Communication General Manager of Sinar Mas, Joice Budi Susanto, said Sinar Mas will continue to meet the world’s demand for paper which is always rising. At present, Indah Kiat is exporting 65 percent of its pulp and paper production, while 20 to 25 percent is allocated for local needs.
