“Our partnership with Isla LPG Corp marks a significant milestone on sustainability and efficiency” said YTPI president and CEO Atsushi Funayama. “This is a crucial step in our company to decide and transition from diesel-powered boiler, to LPG,” added Funayama.

This collaboration with Isla LPG Corp is aligned with YTPI’s sustainability initiative to reduce the company’s carbon foot print and minimize environmental impact of their operation. With the conversion to LPG, YTPI will be producing lower emission while ensuring their maximum capacity in terms of their production.
