The dissolving rayon plant from PT Riau Andalan Pulp Paper (RAPP) will boost the Indonesian pulp paper industry in the near future. The factory which is engaged in upstream rayon making will also boost the Indonesian textile industry as well. The factory belongs to PT RAPP and is expected to be completed by this August. RAPP is part of the April Group which became one of the businesses of the large group of Royal Golden Eagle owned by the Tanoto family.

The rayon industry is important for Indonesia. The group already has a pulp dissolving plant in Brazil to produce rayon fiber. There are three types of pulp products, first, paper, second, dissolving pulp and last is a specialty pulp that can be used for eyeglasses, diet pills, tablets, and cigarette filters.

The new rayon factory may open in September. The plant has a production capacity of 350,000 tons a year. The Asia Pacific Resources International Holdings, or April, is Indonesia’s second largest pulp and paper producer. It develops fiber plantations and is the owner of one of the world's largest pulp and paper mills. It also has operations in China. April mainly produces bleached hardwood kraft pulp and uncoated, wood-free paper.
