YAMAGATA, JAPAN: Kao Corporation announced that PT Kao Indonesia Chemicals will construct a new plant at Karawan International Industry city (KIIC), located in the suburbs of Jakarta, Indonesia, and expand its production facilities. This plan aims at meeting increased demand for industrial products in Asia. The new plant site covers about 120,000 square metre, which is double the area of the production site currently being used. Construction will start in February 2012, and operations will be initiated sequentially from January 2013.
