Philippines cement maker Holcim Philippines is looking for long-term Indonesian coal suppliers to feed its kiln, a company official has said. 

Senior Process Specialist Technology and Engineering Alberto Bernasconi told Petromindo.Com that the company is looking for the supply of 750,000 tonnes of coal per annum.

Currently, the Company’s coal requirement is supplied by Kalimantan coal miner Baramulti Group and trading firm PT Asia Pasific Mining Resources (APMC) under spot contracts. “Both companies could not supply Holcim under long-term contracts,” he said.
