Polymindo Permata is the prime producer of environmentally friendly all-weather wicker and thatch. It was founded by Junus Sumardi in 1985 and launched as a brand named Viro.
Based in Indonesia, PT. Polymindo Permata has gained a global market of furniture and tropical building industry in manufacturing new developed material all-weather wicker and thatch.
Viro is indeed not the first architectural company that carries an eco friendly theme, but by developing handicrafts with rapid technological advances, we can create buildings with aesthetic values that are environmentally friendly but have high quality and also have a modern design with a traditional touch. We are confident that the material and technology we used will gain trust and loyalty from the market.
In the beginning of using synthetic alternatives material trend in tropical building industry, most of the market was still unaccustomed with synthetic wicker and thatch from new developed material of HDPE (High Density Polyethylene). PT. Polymindo Permata had nevertheless started producing synthetic rattan/fiber, bamboo, thatch, and advanced to more innovative products under the brand Viro.
Viro ensures that all products are recyclable products. We believe that recycling can help make a positive impact
By producing products using the support of technology, Viro’ quality is undoubtedly a matter of very strong product durability.
We will ensure that every product we produce can adjust to all the needs but still maintain its functional value.
Viro also wants to take part in preserving nature by producing products that are environmentally friendly but still have better functions and durability.
Viro’s products use HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) as the primary material and source the raw material from a new 50/50 joint venture between RESIN and Compounding Technologies.
The ability to extrude the HDPE by design-assembling machine and machinery tooling allows us to design, create, and monitor the extrusion process from raw material, machine to the output. We design every modification of fibers profile, dimension, and specification by our design capability.
We encourage not only the development of material and product; the technicians also become our concern in order to optimize the technology using. PT. Polymindo Permata provides continuous improvement trainings for our setters, while the operators receive appropriate training and matrix flexibility monitoring to prepare them to be a good setter since PT. Polymindo Permata intends to draw a powerful line between craftsmanship and technology to full satisfaction of our customers.
We also innovate special treatment for some products as availability. We produce built-in fire retardant (FR) formulation, anti-slip formulation, anti-chlorine formulation, anti-microbial formulation, and more that is available to request by our customer.
