PT Chandra Asri
PT Chandra Asri’s facilities are unique in Indonesia in their capacity to produce the first-tier derivatives of naphtha, which are petroleum and olefins. The latter is the basic ingredient for all plastics used in the manufacture of a broad array of products such as home sidings, synthetic fibers, resins, films, adhesives, coating materials, insulators, paints, dyestuffs, foams, detergents, automotive and electronic components as well as packaging for consumer goods.
The two main olefins produced by CA are Ethylene and Propylene. Byproducts include Py-gas and Mixed C4.
Together these four products serve as the building blocks for countless other intermediate petrochemical products. CA consequently maintains a strategic foothold, at the upper end of the value-chain for Indonesia’s manufacturing industries. Additionally CA has well-established relationships with critical downstream partners, many of whom are directly linked to CA’s facilities thr...

PT Styrindo Mono Indonesia
Located not far from where the CA Plant is situated, SMI is strong niche player in Indonesia’s relatively young petrochemicals industry.
Established in 1992, SMI is Indonesia’s only manufacturer of styrene monomer, a raw material for downstream industries manufacturing PS (Polystyrene),EPS (Expanded Polystyrene),SAN (Styrene Acrylonitrile), ABS(Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), SBR (Styrene Butadiene Rubber), SBL(Styrene Butadiene Latex) and UPR(Unsaturated Polyester Resin).
SMI maintains a market share of approximately 80% of the domestic market for styrene monomers and is a key player in export markets of China and Southeast Asia. The company plays an important role in Barito Pacific’s goal to become a fully integrated resource based company.
To produce its styrene monomers, SMI uses ethylene as the main raw materials. Approximately 60% of its raw material is supplied from CA. Current SMI installed capacity is 340,000 MTPA of Styrene...
