PT Semen Padang (Persero) was established on 18 March 1910 firstly named NV Nederlandsch Indische Portland Cement Maatschappij (NV NIPCM). The Company emerged to be the first cement plant in Indonesia.[2] On 5 July 1958, the company was nationalized by the Government of the Republic of Indonesia.

Next, the company developed the capacity of its production by erecting Indarung II, III and IV Plants which, unlike that of Indarung I, apply dry process.[3]

In 1995, the Government shifted its ownership in PT Semen Padang to PT Semen Gresik (Persero) Tbk and in the same year approved the development of Indarung V.
