Indonesia: PT Solusi Bangun Indonesia (SBI) is developing a pier and cement production facility at its Tuban plant, East Java, to export up to 1Mt/yr to the US in collaboration with Taiheiyo Cement, according to national news agency Antara.
Corporate communications manager Novi Maryanti said that the project was a priority amidst the contraction of the domestic cement market. Maryanti said “With our large export capacity, we are optimistic that we can maintain the company's profitability and expand our contribution to the national economy.”
SBI, 83.5% owned by SIG, operates four plants in Narogong, Cilacap, Tuban and Lhoknga with a combined capacity of 14.8Mt/yr and more than 2000 staff.
