Indonesian machine tool distributor adds Filtermist to its portfolio

UK based oil mist collectors manufacturer Filtermist is delighted to announce that it has appointed a third distributor in Indonesia. 

Established in 1988, PT. Citra Niaga Cemerlang, part of the Naga Tarra group, is based in the Tangerang district to the west of Jakarta. Its core business is supplying CNC machine tools and automated robotics; the company is the sole Indonesian distributor for Mazak and has distribution agreements with GF Machining Solutions, Agie Charmilles and Universal Robots. 

PT. Citra also produces its own line of machine tools for customers looking for entry level machines. The Microtarra range includes CNC lathes, machining centres, CNC tapping centres and press machines.

Offering Filtermist oil mist collectors with Mazak, Microtarra and GF machine tools was therefore a natural extension to PT. Citra’s business, as Filtermist Asia’s Business Development Manager Desmond Teo explains, “PT. Citra is well-known by Indonesia’s manufacturers. It offers a wide range of machine tools and has an extensive service department which employees around 20 people.

“This new contract offers significant opportunities for Filtermist. Indonesia’s manufacturing industry accounts for approximately 20% of the country’s GDP and there is widespread confidence that this sector will continue to grow.”

Mr Irwan HL, Director at PT. Citra, comments, “We are very pleased to be able to offer Filtermist oil mist collectors to our customers. It is very important that employers protect their employees from exposure to oil mist as it can cause a range of occupational diseases if it is left in the atmosphere.

“Filtermist oil mist collectors have a global reputation for quality and we are confident that our customers will be pleased with the many benefits that result from using Filtermist oil mist collectors.”

PT. Citra’s service department was one of the main reasons for the company’s appointment, as Filtermist’s Director of Sales, Stuart Plimmer, explains, “Filtermist oil mist collectors are trusted by manufacturers in more than 60 countries worldwide. Our aftersales service is a key factor in our success – we ensure that local support can be accessed wherever it is needed.

“Like all machinery with moving parts, we advise that Filtermist units are regularly serviced to ensure optimum performance is maintained. This offers customers peace of mind that their Filtermist is removing oil mist from the air effectively, making it clean and safe to breathe.”
