PT Semen Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (SIG) reported solid performance in Q1 2025, achieving sales of 8.57 million tons and revenue of IDR 7.65 trillion. Despite domestic market contraction, especially in retail and bulk cement, SIG recorded a 13.8% year-on-year growth in regional sales. Cost efficiency also improved, with a 1.2% drop in cost of revenue and 2.6% lower operational expenses. Financial costs fell by 30.7%, reflecting reduced interest-bearing debt.
In a strategic move to support export expansion, SIG—through its subsidiary PT Solusi Bangun Indonesia Tbk—is constructing a port and production facilities in Tuban, East Java, in collaboration with Japan's Taiheiyo Cement Corporation. The project features a 4.1 km tube conveyor, a tripper conveyor, and a ship loader with a capacity of 1,000 tons per hour. Once completed, it will boost export capacity to 1 million tons per year, particularly targeting the U.S. market. This initiative is part of SIG’s broader effort to increase competitiveness globally and counter domestic market challenges. SIG also continues its commitment to sustainability with innovative green products, including precision interlocking bricks supporting the government’s affordable housing program. As an infrastructure SOE with over a century of experience and operations across Asia and Oceania, SIG aims to lead the building materials sector by offering eco-friendly solutions and strengthening its global presence.
