REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Toyo Engineering Corporation (TEC), a company in the field of engineering, procurement, construction (EPC) from Japan that has been welknown worldwide cooperates with PT Rekayasa Industri (Rekind) to collaborate in the fields of engineering, FEED, detailed design, procurement, construction, project management services and the provision of supporting resources.

Rekind's experts are planned to be stationed in Japan, Thailand, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Georgia, to support TEC's global operations, especially in the work on fertilizer projects that are or will be carried out.

"This step is a new historical breakthrough that is able to touch back the memory of the past, where since its inception, Rekind has often collaborated with Toyo in supporting the development of EPC projects in the country. This is very proud and we believe that through this collaboration we can lift even higher and sharpen Rekind's ability to support the transformation of the company that we are preparing in navigating today's competition.

This also proves that Rekind's capabilities are recognized by the world," said Rekind President Director Triyani Utaminingsih (Yani), after signing the 'Master Framework Agreement between Rekind and TEC', quoting a written statement, Friday (4/8/2023).

Yani said, Rekind is an EPC company whose capabilities are still taken into account by well-known EPC companies both nationally and internationally. Through his 42 years of mastery and experience, it is not surprising that several foreign companies, including Toyo, have always been interested in cooperating with the nation's EPC company.

"Many large-scale industrial projects have been completed through the cooperation with the best results, as well as the construction of a number of fertilizer, chemical and petrochemical plants in the country," she said.
