The facility has a total lot area of 66,265 square meters (building area is 11,935 square meters). It is a strategic location for import and export.

It is also a strategic hub for supply of raw materials particularly Aluminum Ingots from Russia. And taking into consideration environmental- friendly manufacturing processes, here they have an abundant source of Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) and an abundant source of manpower.
