Charles K Hambali
Founder And Technical Director
Having completed his Bachelor of Science and Masters (MCHEM) in Analytical Chemistry in 1979 from the University of New South Wales (UNSW), Mr. Charles Hambali soon found his passion formulating adhesives. Acting upon both his own and his elder brother’s (Mr. Jeffrey Hambali) desire to make specialty chemicals and adhesives locally available, the two established PT. Polychemie Asia Pacific Permai in 1980 with the knowledge and experiences they had gathered during their youth. Mr. Charles Hambali’s aspiration was to give people the chance to utilize better quality adhesives locally. His dream was made possible through Polychemie
