PT. Beton Elemenindo Putra is a division of Beton Works, one of Indonesia’s largest and most trusted concrete-based construction material manufacturing federation. Our main product is b-panel®/b-deck® modular wall and floor system, which allow rapid construction of earthquake- resistant, intensively-insulated buildings.
As Fire-Retardant Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) was chosen to be the insulation layer within b-panel®/b-deck®, PT. Beton Elemenindo Putra evolved into the only EPS manufacturer in Indonesia with a core focus in building technology instead of packaging and decoration. As such, we strives to develop next-generation applications for our b-foam® EPS beyond its traditional usages, such as Ultralight Architectural Facades, Geotechnical Solution, and Floating Structures.
PT. Beton Elemenindo Putra is a grand experiment in socially and ecologically responsible business in Indonesia – that growing a business does not have to be at the expense of the environment, or be an accessory to socially- menacing industries. We recycle 100% of our post-production waste, and as much municipal post-consumer polystyrene waste as we can absorb. Our factory boiler runs exclusively on biofuel since 2010. We choose not to serve coal mining operation and tobacco-related projects, and in every project that employ our products, a significant and permanent carbon footprint reduction-through reduced thermal leakage, enhanced structural efficiency, and reduced embodied energy.
