Sustainability is at the heart of Semen Merah Putih, driving innovation and eco-friendly practices across all aspects of its operations, from production to community engagement

Update Program

Semen Merah Putih is committed to sustainability-focused initiatives throughout the entire product lifecycle, from upstream to downstream. Through these efforts, the company aims not only to meet high-quality standards but also to contribute to sustainability goals and drive innovation in the construction industry.

Initiatives for an integrated production process focused on reducing carbon emissions, being eco-friendly, and utilizing renewable energy:

Carbon Emission Reduction Initiatives

• Energy-efficient equipment: We utilize advanced machinery and automation systems to lower energy consumption.
• Carbon capture and storage: We implement CCS technology to capture and store CO2 emissions.
• Material optimization: We use alternative raw materials with a smaller carbon footprint, such as slag or fly ash.
• Transport efficiency: We employ electric or low-emission vehicles to minimize CO2 emissions from transportation.

Eco-Friendly and Renewable Energy Initiatives

• Sustainable sourcing: We ensure that raw materials are sourced sustainably while considering environmental impacts.
• Waste management: We repurpose industrial waste to generate electricity and store excess renewable energy in battery systems.

This approach supports long-term sustainability and reduces the environmental footprint of our production process.

Our primary commitment to sustainability involves continuous innovation to reduce the carbon footprint of our cement and its derivatives. This includes enhancing energy efficiency in production, implementing the latest technologies, using alternative fuels, and incorporating alternative cement materials.

Semen Merah Putih focuses on sustainability in every step of production (upstream & downstream) through:

1. Lower Clinker Use
   By reducing the amount of clinker, we cut CO2 emissions and improve sustainability. We use additives like slag and fly ash to replace some clinker, lowering carbon emissions while improving product strength and quality.
2. Low-Carbon Materials
   We use eco-friendly raw materials that produce fewer carbon emissions, helping to reduce the overall environmental impact.
3. Value-Added Solutions
   Our products not only meet quality standards but also offer extra benefits like greater strength, durability, and long-term cost savings.

These efforts show our commitment to producing eco-friendly, efficient, and innovative products.

As a key partner of Semen Merah Putih, construction workers, particularly craftsmen and supervisors, must continuously enhance their skills and well-being.

Through this initiative, Semen Merah Putih aims to enhance individuals' quality of life, provide sustainable development opportunities, and create a broader positive impact on society.

1. Skill Enhancement
   We offer training and certification programs to improve the technical skills of construction workers.
2. Support for Formal Education
   We provide scholarships and financial assistance to help workers obtain degrees and professional certifications.
3. Health and Well-being Prevention
   We offer regular health check-ups, fitness programs, and health facilities to ensure the health and safety of our workers.

This program is designed to improve the quality of life and skills of the workforce while fostering a healthier and more supportive work environment.

As a mining product, giving back to the planet is a commitment of Semen Merah Putih as a leading cement brand.

Initiatives to Protect the Planet and Combat Climate Change:

Tree Planting
We implement tree-planting programs around production facilities and other areas to absorb CO2, improve air quality, and support biodiversity.

Reclamation
We undertake land reclamation of former mining sites or construction areas to restore the ecological functions of the land and prevent pollution.

Water Conservation
We adopt technologies and practices to reduce water consumption in our production processes, including water recycling systems and rainwater harvesting.

Microalgae Photobioreactors
We utilize microalgae photobioreactors to lower carbon emissions and absorb CO2 from the atmosphere.

These initiatives aim to protect the environment, reduce our carbon footprint, and ensure sustainability for future generations while preserving life on Earth.
