PT Kobexindo Equipment ("KOBE"), a subsidiary of PT Kobexindo Tractors Tbk (IDX: “KOBX”), has delivered two units of SIBILIA truck Vacuum S24D to PT Freeport Indonesia (PTFI)'s smelter in Gresik, East Java. These industrial heavy equipment trucks, mounted on a 6x4 diesel truck with a 7,684 cc engine, use a 4-stroke in-line diesel engine adhering to Euro 4 emission standards, designed to support operational mobility.

The SIBILIA truck Vacuum S24D is an Italian-made vacuum machine with over 80 years of experience. Powered by a 136HP auxiliary diesel engine, it generates a suction force of 8,300DaPa. The machine is equipped with a 10m3 dust/waste collection tank and holds an ATEX certification (Atmospheres Explosible), meeting European Union standards for products used in potentially explosive environments.

Suryanto, Director of PT Kobexindo Equipment, expressed pride in supporting Freeport Indonesia's zero-waste policy and maintaining high standards of Health, Safety, and Environment (HSE) across all its operational areas.

The S24D's strong suction power is designed for large-scale industrial waste management, helping Freeport manage waste efficiently, reduce downtime, and maintain cleanliness in the smelter area.

PTFI’s second smelter was inaugurated on June 27, 2024. Copper cathode, the smelter's primary product, serves as raw material for various downstream industries, including cables, electronics, and electrical sectors.

Kobexindo's Performance Highlights: Strengthening Non-Mining Segments

In the S1 2024, Kobexindo’s heavy equipment unit sales reached IDR 499.93 billion, contributing 56.25% to the company's consolidated total revenue, the highest among its business segments. This growth was driven by strong sales performance across various business sectors.

“Kobexindo remains committed to strengthening its non-mining segments, including the manufacturing sector, with a focus on providing environmentally friendly heavy equipment. Through KOBE, the company offers environmental solutions, material handling, and logistic solutions. This reflects Kobexindo’s commitment to supplying high-quality equipment tailored to industry needs while supporting environmentally responsible business practices,” explained Gabrielle Azelia, Corporate Secretary of PT Kobexindo Tractors Tbk.
