Press Release: 1277/HM.01.02/SUP/50048642/5000/06.2021 Supporting the Acceleration of National Infrastructure, Semen Gresik Supplies Cement Needs for the KIT Batang Strategic Project Rembang, June 17, 2021 - PT Semen Gresik (SG), again, supported the National Strategic Project (PSN) by supplying raw materials for the construction of the Batang Integrated Industrial Estate (KIT Batang) in Central Java, covering an area of 4,300 ha. Vice President of Corporate Sales of PT Semen Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (SIG), Joni Gunawan, explained that, as part of SIG, SG had supplied 100% of cement needs since the beginning of the KIT Batang construction in February 2021 until recently. "We always try to maintain the quality and availability of the cement for the project development needs. The project acceleration can be supported by SG's capability in supplying fleets and cement stocks," said Gunawan in a press release, Thursday (6/17). In constructing access roads and bridges, regional development, and supporting facilities in KIT Batang, he continued, SG supplied selected products, specifically UltraPro, which provided many advantages. ''UltraPro combines the construction simplicity and outcome with maximum strength, making it adequate for sturdy constructions requiring higher initial and final compressive strengths that are adjusted to the project quality specifications. For this reason, it is safe for vehicles with massive loads to pass through this industrial area,'' he added. In addition, Ultrapro also has an optimal dry time and better flexural strength, which provide the best concrete performance with a smoother finish. "Their trust in us proves that this project has a major concern in maintaining the quality of infrastructure construction, starting from road access, regional development, to its supporting facilities," Joni claimed. Joni added that SG was committed to providing support in accelerating the KIT Batang development, which presented as the Government's effort to realize the national economic recovery due to the Covid- 19 pandemic. As a national project, KIT Batang was built as a new growth center and was expected to attract foreign investors, which could open job opportunities in the construction, electronics, logistics, transportation, nutrition, health, and other industries sectors. In addition to the KIT Batang project, SG was also involved in the construction of other National Strategic Projects in Indonesia, such as the Semarang-Demak Toll Road, Jogja-Solo Toll Road, Kediri Airport, Tukul Reservoir/Dam, Kulon Progo Airport and the Kulon Progo Railway projects, Solo Airport Railway, Ahmad Yani Airport, the Bogowonto Project, and Krian-Legundi-Bunder-Manyar Toll Road. *** About Semen Gresik PT Semen Gresik or SG is one of the subsidiaries of PT Semen Indonesia (Persero) TBK or SIG, established on January 10, 2014.
