PT BAM Decorient Indonesia has been awarded a contract for the onshore civil works of a cement plant for Holcim in Tuban, East Java, Indonesia. The contract period is 22 months.

BAM Decorient’s client is PT ThyssenKrupp Polysius Indonesia, as contractor responsible for the construction and erection of the new clinker and cement factory for Holcim, Indonesia’s third largest cement maker.

BAM will construct the almost 90 reinforced concrete structures that are required for the plant. These vary from large support constructions (up to 120m high) for the process equipment to electrical stations and concrete silos. The largest of the six silos will be 80m high. BAM Decorient intends to recruit as much as possible local workforce from Tuban and the surrounding area to execute the works.
