Site

The facility is a major polypropylene (PP) resin production site, utilizing Spheripol technology licensed from Montell (now LyondellBasell), for manufacturing of a wide range of PP grades under the Masplene^® brand, tailored to various industrial and consumer needs.

The plant's primary raw material, high-purity propylene gas, is sourced directly from the Pertamina Refinery Unit VI (RU-VI) in Balongan, Juntinyuat, ensuring a stable and reliable feedstock supply.

Plant capacity:

• Initial capacity (1995): 100,000 metric tons per year (MT/year).
• Expanded to 180,000 MT/year in 1996, 200,000 MT/year in 2004, 240,000 MT/year in 2008, and 260,000 MT/year in 2018.
• As of the end of 2019, the plant reached a maximum installed capacity of 300,000 MT/year.

The plant is organized into specialized process areas, including:

• Area 700: Propylene feed purification (removal of light gases such as ethane and CO₂)
• Area 100: Catalyst preparation
• Area 200: Polymerization
• Area 300: Separation
• Area 500: Drying
• Area 600: Blowdown
• Areas 800 & 5000: Molding
• Area 900: Packaging
