Jakarta, 1 August 2025 - PT Solusi Bangun Indonesia Tbk, producer of innovative all-in-one cement, Dynamix, through its subsidiary, PT Pendawa Lestari Perkasa contributes to the revitalization of sidewalks in the Blok M area, Jakarta, which is now being prepared to become Blok M - Sentra ASEAN. Through innovative environmentally friendly solutions, ThruCrete and DekoCrete, Solusi Bangun Indonesia supports the revitalization of pedestrian pathways that are safe, comfortable, and sustainable.
The Blok M area is known as one of Jakarta's strategic commercial and transportation nodes that is currently being revitalized by the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government into Blok M Sentra ASEAN-an inclusive and creative economic and cultural center. Every day, thousands of people pass through this area, ranging from MRT and TransJakarta users, to visitors to culinary centers and public spaces.
As the region strengthens its role as a regional public mobility hub, the need for safe, comfortable and inclusive pedestrian pathways becomes a priority. Good sidewalks are not just about aesthetics, they are also about safety, accessibility, and resilience to the impacts of climate change.
Responding to this need, PT Pendawa Lestari Perkasa presents ThruCrete porous concrete solution, which has a high absorption capacity of up to 250 liters per square meter per minute to drain water directly into the ground, and DekoCrete, decorative concrete with anti-slip texture that supports pedestrian safety. The combination of these two products supports sidewalk quality that is not only environmentally friendly, but also aesthetically pleasing and durable.
“Pedestrian space is the right of city residents. Therefore, material selection is important to support facilities that are not only aesthetic and functional, but also resilient to the impacts of climate change and environmentally friendly,” said Widodo Ariawan, Director of PT Pendawa Lestari Perkasa.
Widodo Ariawan added that the revitalization process in the Blok M area pays attention to work safety as a top priority, given the high mobility of people in this area. “The planning, execution, and completion stages of the work are carefully coordinated with all parties involved. We apply work safety procedures, including temporary road arrangements for pedestrians and securing the project area according to safety standards,” said Widodo Ariawan.
In addition to the Blok M area, ThruCrete and DekoCrete have been used in various sidewalk and green open space projects in Jakarta and other cities such as Taman Anggrek GBK, Taman Suroboyo, Taman Wiyung in Surabaya, RTH Tegalega Bandung, and Depok City Square. Even in the operational area of Juanda International Airport, ThruCrete strengthens the drainage function to prevent inundation.
With innovative concrete ThruCrete and DekoCrete, Solusi Bangun Indonesia which is part of PT Semen Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (SIG) supports the development of cities that continue to move forward without leaving environmental aspects and the comfort of citizens. A pedestrian-friendly, puddle-free and climate-resilient city is no longer a discourse, but a real solution.
