Tata Metal Lestari Exports 4,978 MT of Indonesian Steel to the USA

On 25 February 2025, PT Tata Metal Lestari successfully completed a breakbulk export shipment of 4,978 MT of Indonesian steel to the United States, contributing to the growth of a sustainable industry and adding another significant chapter to the company's export story. A breakbulk shipment of this size is a complex undertaking that demands careful coordination between production, quality assurance, packing, and port logistics — and completing it successfully is a clear demonstration of the operational maturity and reliability that international buyers look for in a long-term supplier.
The flagship products dispatched — NEXALUME, NEXIUM, and NEXCOLOR GRANDE — were sent off from Jakarta in a ceremony that highlighted the strength of Indonesia's domestic steel industry. Each of these products carries its own combination of corrosion resistance, durability, and finish quality, and together they showcase the breadth of Tata Metal Lestari's coated steel portfolio to one of the world's most demanding markets.
Attended by industry leaders
The event was attended by distinguished guests, reflecting strong collaboration across the national steel sector and the shared determination to see Indonesian products succeed abroad:
- Muhamad Akbar Djohan – President Director of PT Krakatau Steel (Persero) Tbk
- Arief Purnomo – President Director of PT Krakatau Baja Industri
- The Board of Directors of Tatalogam Group
The presence of these leaders underscored how closely the country's steel producers and their partners are working together — pooling capability, expertise, and market access to help Indonesian steel compete on the global stage.
A step toward a greener future
This shipment marks a significant step toward global collaboration for a greener future. By bringing high-quality, sustainably produced Indonesian steel to the United States, Tata Metal Lestari continues to demonstrate that national products can compete and earn trust on the world stage. Exports like this not only strengthen the company's international standing but also support the broader goal of building a steel industry that is competitive, responsible, and aligned with the world's growing expectations for sustainability.
