Vinilon Group, as a manufacturer and distributor of pipes, has made significant contributions in Indonesia. Their pipes are installed all over Indonesia, including Papua. In addition to pipes, Vinilon Group also distributes many accessories.
As a speaker, Uza Sefridinata, Product Department Head of Vinion Group, was present. Uza presented a topic related to HDPE pipes in this public lecture. In his presentation, Uza said, “HDPE pipes have many advantages, including being flexible, lightweight, economical, and non-corrosive. Based on their function, these pipes are divided into three types: HDPE pipes for water, HDPE for gas, and HDPE for cable jackets. HDPE pipes can be joined using welding, flange, and mechanical techniques.”
After the material presentation, students watched and directly practised the demonstration of joining HDPE pipes. Next, there was a psychology test related to personality. Finally, students were equipped with knowledge of how to write a good CV.
The Dean of FTUI, Prof. Dr. Ir.
