Thejakartapost.com, 22 September 2024
PT Gunung Raja Paksi (GRP) is supporting Microsoft Indonesia’s data center project through its high strength steel, which is designed for infrastructure projects requiring extra durability and strength. The collaboration was outlined in GRP’s recent customer appreciation day event, which took the theme of “Uniting for Stronger Connection and Greater Impact.”
GRP’s high strength steel boasts a yield strength of over 350 megapascals (MPa) and tensile strength exceeding 450 MPa, far surpassing the yield strength of mild steel of above 250 MPa with a tensile strength of 400 MPa. Microsoft Indonesia’s data center project leverages GRP’s high strength steel, meeting the need for high-quality materials that support sustainable infrastructure standards.
Budi Prasetya, Microsoft Indonesia’s construction quality manager for Jakarta projects, said GRP successfully provided high-quality local products that met Microsoft’s stringent standards, including the Indonesian national standard. “This collaboration highlights how locally sourced materials can compete in global infrastructure projects,” he said.
