Milestones

From our founding to today, SJC has grown from a single business into a diversified industrial group with operations across Southeast Asia. Each milestone reflects our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and creating long-term value for our stakeholders.

SJC was founded by royal decree to set up the country's first cement plant. From day one, our purpose has been to build the foundations of a modern economy with quality materials and forward-looking innovation.

SJC played a central role in the country's industrialization, expanding from cement into building materials, paper, and chemicals. We invested in modern manufacturing technologies and built a network of subsidiaries across the region.

SJC expanded operations into neighboring countries, becoming one of the first ASEAN industrial groups with cross-border manufacturing and distribution. We listed on the Stock Exchange and established our flagship businesses in cement, chemicals, and packaging.

SJC formalized its commitment to sustainability with the launch of our Sustainable Development Framework. We invested heavily in R&D, opening innovation centers and developing high-value-added products with reduced environmental impact.

We embraced digital transformation across all business units — from smart manufacturing and predictive maintenance to e-commerce platforms and digital customer experiences. SJC also expanded into new businesses including renewable energy and smart living solutions.

SJC committed to Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, integrating ESG 4 Plus across all business operations. We continue to lead the transition to a low-carbon economy through green products, circular economy initiatives, and clean energy investments.
