PT KCC Glass Indonesia (KCC Glass), located in the Batang Integrated Industrial Zone (KITB), Central Java, has invested IDR 4 trillion to establish the largest glass sheet factory in Southeast Asia. Minister of Investment and Head of the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM), Rosan Roeslani, stated that KCC Glass has made a substantial investment and plans to increase its contribution in the future. The current investment by KCC Glass amounts to IDR 4 trillion, with plans to boost it up to IDR 8 trillion.
