Through this product, Chandra Asri is committed to supporting the Government's target in building natural gas distribution grid (jargas) for 4 million household connections by 2024. Chandra Asri's Asrene®SP4808 is a material that has the best long-term strength in its class with a classification of PE 100; better than the type of material commonly used for gas pipe applications, PE 80.
The use of Asrene® SP4808 for gas pipeline applications can also increase domestic components level (TKDN), given that the raw materials used for gas grid projects are 100% imports. Therefore, the Asrene® SP4808 product can be a solution from both technical and commercial perspective to help the national strategic program, jargas for the people, comes true.
