PT DAHANA (Persero) is showcasing its Ammonium Nitrate (AN) product at Mining Indonesia 2026, one of Southeast Asia’s largest mining industry exhibitions. This product showcase is part of DAHANA’s strategic move to strengthen its portfolio while supporting the needs of the mining industry in both domestic and international markets.
Ammonium Nitrate is a key raw material in the production of explosives used to support mining, quarrying, construction, and oil and gas operations. DAHANA’s Ammonium Nitrate is manufactured at a facility in Bontang, East Kalimantan, which has an annual production capacity of 75,000 tons.
Irwan Ibrahim, Director of Technology & Development at PT DAHANA, stated that the Bontang Ammonium Nitrate plant plays a strategic role in ensuring the availability of industrial raw materials and opening up opportunities for global market expansion. “DAHANA operates an Ammonium Nitrate plant in Bontang with a production capacity of 75,000 tons per year. This facility is part of our effort to meet national industrial needs while expanding our market reach internationally,” said Irwan.
DAHANA’s commitment to developing the Ammonium Nitrate market was demonstrated through its inaugural export, which took place on April 18, 2026. This milestone marks a significant step in expanding the market reach of DAHANA’s products and enhancing the global competitiveness of the national explosives industry.
Through Mining Indonesia 2026, DAHANA is introducing its Ammonium Nitrate to mining industry stakeholders and exploring partnership opportunities with strategic partners, both domestic and international. This participation also serves as an opportunity for DAHANA to showcase its capabilities in providing products that meet the demands of the mining sector.
Backed by robust production capacity and extensive experience in the explosives industry, DAHANA continues to strengthen its role in supporting national industrial self-reliance. This initiative is also part of DAHANA’s efforts to expand Indonesia’s contribution to the global mining industry supply chain.
