According to Indra Firdaus, General Manager Manufacturing, many of the notable classic fashion manufacturers use fabrics produced by the company: "There cannot be a more popular item of clothing around the world than jeans. Hardly any other fabric is provided in so many different variants. We have to bear this in mind as well, because jeans and the denim materials used for them are constantly reinventing themselves! Pure cottons or blend qualities with some stretchiness, heavy quality or light, in indigo or in other stylish dyes, modern washes or more trendy special treatments, we can deliver it all."

The entire range of products provided by PT APAC Inti Corpora meets the criteria of the OEKO-TEX Standard 100. All of the manufactured yarns and greige fabrics comply with the strictest human-ecological requirements for certification in accordance with product class I (baby articles).

The comprehensive quality management in the production operation in Semarang is certified in accordance with the regulations of the quality management system EN ISO 9001-2008 and, in addition to continuous incoming goods inspections and a separate inspection department (visual quality check, physical product performance, testing of colour fastness), includes as its centrepiece a professional testing laboratory that allows for quality monitoring throughout all stages of production.

All of the processes in the spinning and weaving mill are subject to the provisions of the environmental management system EN ISO 14001-2004. Furthermore, the energy management system EN ISO 50001-2011 is implemented in the company and has played a significant role in sustainably improving its levels of energy efficiency through the optimisation of energy sources, use and consumption.

PT APAC Inti Corpora is especially attentive to the requirements of its personnel: In addition to the standard provisions for health and safety, training and further development and health care, the company provides a wide range of recreational activities for its employees, strengthening its sense of community and thus employee motivation.

Benny Soetrisno, President Dircetor, is convinced that the fact that employees are so appreciated makes an enormous contribution to the company. "We are of the firm belief that our employees actively shape the future of our whole company and are our biggest asset. Our well-trained specialists should therefore be as closely connected to the company as possible."
