TWINNY S: Ensuring Reliable Welding Seams for Shrimp Farms
Creating Watertight Shrimp Farms in Remote Indonesia
How do you build leak-proof shrimp tanks that perform reliably, even in the most remote regions of Indonesia? The answer lies in high-quality HDPE membranes and precision welding technology. Leading Indonesian membrane manufacturer Jempol has partnered with Leister to create seamless, watertight connections—paving the way for a sustainable and successful aquaculture industry.
A Thriving Shrimp Farm in Semarang
On the north coast of Java, Indonesia, a brand-new shrimp farm is taking shape in Semarang. Overseeing the project is Production Manager Febrian Adhitya and his team, who are finalizing the construction of the dams separating the basins on the three-hectare site.
Once fully operational, the farm will produce 100 metric tons of shrimp annually, contributing to Indonesia’s booming aquaculture sector, which is rapidly gaining global significance.
Reliable Welding for Leak-Proof Shrimp Tanks
To ensure maximum durability and water retention, the farm’s breeding and water treatment tanks are lined with 0.5 mm thick HDPE geomembranes from Jempol—an industry leader in high-quality geomembrane production.
Jempol exclusively uses locally sourced HDPE resins and follows strict quality control standards. Their partnership with Leister ensures precise and consistent welding seams, preventing leaks and safeguarding the farm’s operation.
🛠 On-Site with Leister’s TWINNY S
At the construction site, the TWINNY S automatic welder is at work, leaving behind its unmistakable double-track welds across the 8-meter-wide HDPE membranes. With countless seams required for installation, ensuring absolute waterproofing is critical.
To meet this challenge, Jempol regularly rents out Leister equipment to installation teams. This guarantees reliable, leak-proof results—a fundamental requirement for effective shrimp farming.
Quality & Reliability: Essential for Remote Locations
According to Jempol’s Marketing Manager, Yoppie Budiono, shrimp farms in remote Indonesian regions can span up to 100 hectares. Given the scale and isolation of these sites, using premium membranes and dependable welding technology is non-negotiable.
“With Leister equipment, we ensure that the weld seams are watertight and free from issues,” says Budiono.
Jempol & Leister: A Partnership Built on Trust
The longstanding collaboration between Jempol and Leister continues to strengthen Indonesia’s aquaculture industry.
🛠 Why Jempol Chooses Leister:
✔ Guaranteed watertight weld seams
✔ Durable and reliable performance
✔ Reduced risk of installation failures
“If we don’t want any problems, we use Leister.” – Febrian Adhitya, Jempol
Notably, the name “Jempol” translates to “thumbs up” in Indonesian—symbolizing its commitment to quality and reliability. Together, Jempol and Leister prove that sustainable aquaculture solutions are achievable, not just in Indonesia but on a global scale.
✅ A success story that extends far beyond Indonesia’s borders.
