Asia Pacific Rayon to ramp up viscose fibre production to meet market demand

Asia Pacific Rayon (APR) plans to increase its production capacity to 600,000 tons to meet the strong growth potential of viscose staple fiber (VSF) and strengthen its market position in Indonesia and export markets across the region.

The additional capacity will be achieved through improved optimization and efficiencies, and by adding 300,000-tonne viscose production facility in Pangkalan Kerinci – Riau, Indonesia where APR is co-located with sister company and fiber supplier APRIL Group.
