This achievement serves as recognition for the development of corporate communications across various channels and programs, ranging from digital media, internal media, to employee engagement in delivering communication that is increasingly close and beneficial to the public.

Vice President of Corporate Communication of Petrokimia Gresik, Ari Primantara, stated that these awards motivate the company to continuously enhance its communication quality. According to him, technological developments and changing public behavior require the company to better understand public information needs, deliver relevant messages, and foster more open two-way communication.

“Good communication is not only about how much information we deliver, but also about how that information can be understood and provide benefits. Therefore, we continue to develop various communication channels so that the public can more easily access information, get to know company activities, and have a space to interact with Petrokimia Gresik,” said Ari.

At the AHI 2026 event, Petrokimia Gresik earned a Gold award in the Digital Channel category, Social Media subcategory, through Instagram @petrokimiagresik_official, as well as a Silver award in the Website subcategory. Both channels are continuously developed to expand information access, enhance public interaction, and convey various company activities, innovations, and contributions in a more engaging and accessible manner.

The next achievements were secured in the Internal Media category. Petrokimia Gresik earned a Silver award for Video Profile and GEMA magazine edition “Growing With Impact”. Meanwhile, two other editions of GEMA, namely “Tak Hanya Setara, Tapi Berdaya” and “Rajut Kebersamaan Raih Kemenangan”, each won Bronze. Through internal media, the company seeks to strengthen employee understanding of business developments, strategic directions, and corporate values, while fostering a spirit of togetherness to support corporate goals.

Completing the achievements, Petrokimia Gresik also earned a Silver award in the Government Public Relations Program category, State Corporation subcategory, through the EI Squad (Employee Influencer) program. This program involves employees in sharing information and experiences regarding company activities, enabling Petrokimia Gresik's various messages to be conveyed in a more personal, authentic, and relatable manner to the public.

Ari added that strengthening communication across these various channels is also part of efforts to support Petrokimia Gresik's role as an Agroindustrial Solutions company. Various innovations, business activities, and corporate contributions to the agricultural sector need to be communicated properly so that they are better known and understood by the public and stakeholders alike.

“For us, these awards serve as motivation to keep delivering better and more beneficial communication. We want every piece of information conveyed to not only reach the public, but also foster understanding regarding Petrokimia Gresik's various efforts and contributions, particularly in supporting the agricultural sector and national food security,” Ari emphasized.
