JAKARTA - PT Trisula International Tbk (TRIS) has pocketed a permit to distribute personal protective equipment (PPE) from the Ministry of Health.
With the permit, which will be valid for five years, TRIS will sell PPE including hazmat suits and protective footwear through its subsidiary PT Trisula Textile Industries Tbk (BELL).
“By obtaining permission from the Ministry of Health, this is certainly our effort to provide the best product quality by meeting the standards set. The goal is to give consumers confidence in the PPE products that are made according to their needs,” said TRIS CEO Santoso Widjojo in an official statement received by IDNFinancials.com, Wednesday (30/9).
In addition, TRIS also produces non-medical masks distributed to several regions across Indonesia; as of August 2020 the company produced 9.5 million masks. Currently the company is exploring its plan to export PPE to countries such as Australia, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
“Indeed, the Covid‐19 Pandemic has made restrictions in various regions. However, we are still trying to expand our market where most of our markets are exports in Australia and America,” Mr Widjojo added. (MS)
