Overview
PT. Argapura, established in 1954 by the late Mr. Jahja Halim, began as a pioneer in the production of roll-your-own cigarette paper. This legacy business unit remains in operation today, underscoring our long-standing commitment to quality and tradition.
Under the leadership of Commissioner Albertus Lukman Halim and Director Maria Johanna Halim, PT. Argapura has expanded and diversified its operations. Our portfolio now includes the manufacturing of a wide range of automotive chemicals as well as tea-bag packaging machinery and materials, reflecting our ability to adapt to evolving market demands.
As customer needs and market dynamics continue to evolve, we remain focused on delivering optimal Quality, Cost, and Delivery (QCD) performance. Our strategic repositioning ensures that we remain competitive both within the domestic market and across the broader Southeast Asian region.
To meet international quality and environmental standards, we achieved ISO 9001:2000 certification from TUV in June 2006. This was further upgraded to ISO 9001:2008 in February 2011, along with the attainment of ISO 14001:2004, reflecting our commitment to sustainable and efficient operational practices.
In 2025, PT Argapura achieved certification to the IATF 16949:2016 international automotive quality standard, underscoring our commitment to world-class manufacturing and continuous improvement. Our IATF certification represents more than mere compliance—it reflects our ongoing dedication to excellence, safety, and reliability in every product we supply.
We actively participate in the Toyota Production System (TPS) initiatives, fostering a culture of continuous improvement. Our dedicated team engages in Jishuken activities, collaborating with Toyota suppliers to identify inefficiencies and implement measurable improvements. This structured approach enables us to consistently enhance operational excellence and deliver value to our clients.
