It has been thirty years since APP began operations with a single, small in East Java, Indonesia. Today, APP has evolved into a recognized leader in the global paper market.

Along with leadership comes responsibility. As stated in our Corporate Mission, all of the companies operating under the APP brand continually strive to improve the quality of life of their employees, provide satisfactory returns to shareholders, and further strengthen the group’s foundations so that it can build an even better and sustainable tomorrow for its stakeholders.

This Mission is demonstrated daily through APP’s three commitments: to society, to the environment, and to the economy of Indonesia.
