Rising Demand for Green and Sustainable Cement
The demand for sustainable and environmentally friendly cement is increasing in the market, driven by stricter environmental regulations and growing awareness of carbon emissions. Government efforts to encourage green construction through the introduction of the Low Carbon Development Initiative (LCDI) have encouraged cement producers to adopt sustainable production practices. Cement producers, such as PT Semen Indonesia and PT Indocement, are employing substitute raw materials to reduce the volume of clinker consumed in cement production, which is a significant contributor to CO₂ emissions, including fly ash and slag. In the first quarter of 2024, PT Semen Jawa, a subsidiary of Siam Cement Group (SCG), employed 24,000 tons of alternative raw materials such as bottom ash, fly ash, and slag, representing 3% of its overall raw material usage. Furthermore, the company co-processed 15,000 tons of alternative fuel (AF) with a substitution rate of 20%. These efforts complement SCG's commitment to reducing CO2 emissions and supporting Indonesia in meeting its climate targets. In addition, the application of waste heat recovery systems in factories is increasing efficiency. The expansion of green building certifications, such as EDGE (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies), also contributes to this movement as developers seek sustainable materials. Combined with Indonesia's goal to achieve a net-zero emissions target by 2060, demand for low-carbon cement products is expected to continue rising, thereby reshaping the competitive dynamics of the industry.
Infrastructure Development Boosts Cement Consumption
The emergence of large-scale infrastructure projects under the government’s National Strategic Projects (PSN) program is also propelling the Indonesia cement market growth. Key initiatives such as the new capital city Nusantara in East Kalimantan, toll road expansions, and dam constructions are driving cement demand. The annual increase in cement consumption, supported by both public and private sector investments is impacting the market. In December 2024, Indonesia experienced a year-on-year decline of 11.5% in cement demand, reaching 5.619 million tons, with significant drops observed in all areas except Sumatra. For the year as a whole, cement sales totaled 64.887 million tons, representing a slight 0.9% decrease from 2023, with Java contributing 52% of total sales. Despite a tough market, cement production rose by 1% year-over-year to 67.570 million tons, while clinker exports increased by 14.6% to 10.9 million tons, driven mainly by interest from Bangladesh and Australia. Additionally, post-pandemic economic recovery has accelerated housing projects, further fueling market growth. To meet rising demand, major players are expanding production capacities PT Semen Padang, for instance, has increased its output to 8 million tons annually. However, challenges such as rising energy costs and logistics disruptions could impact pricing. Despite these hurdles, the infrastructure-driven demand is expected to sustain market expansion, making Indonesia one of Southeast Asia’s fastest-growing cement markets.
