Indonesia's PT Asahimas Flat Glass begins commercial production at Cikampek plant

KUALA LUMPUR, April 15 (Bernama) -- AGC group's Indonesian company, PT Asahimas Flat Glass Tbk (AMG) has began operating a mirror line at its Cikampek plant in the first quarter of 2019.

AMG is part of the global AGC group which was established as a joint venture in 1973 between Asahi Glass Co Ltd (Japanese glass manufacturer) and PT Rodamas (an Indonesian distributor of glass and related consumer goods).

The operations follow the launch of its new float furnace and mass production on its new magnetron sputtering coater in the third quarter of 2018, marking another milestone in AGC's glass footprints in Asia.

With the integrated, state-of-the-art float glass furnace, magnetron coating line and mirror line, AMG offers a single source for a wide variety of specialty glass products and solutions catering to different market needs across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region.

The new magnetron coater with cutting-edge AGC-Interpane Europe technology is capable of delivering excellent products of solar control, high performance and spectrally selective glass in jumbo size up to six metres.

A series of high-performance coatings, T-Sunlux and Stopray targeted at residential and commercial segments for APAC markets is launched progressively, according to a statement.

T-Sunlux is a temperable magnetron-coated glass with a durable coating, while Stopray is high-performance magnetron-coated glass which gives excellent selectivity with a neutral appearance.

The new mirror line is a big step for AMG as it enhances its product line-up with the launch of Mirox MNGE (Mirox New Generation Ecological Mirrors), manufactured with patented AGC Europe technology and the same optimum levels of quality and service.
