Description
An Integrated Sports Complex for the Pupuk Kaltim Family in Bontang
In Bontang, on the east coast of Kalimantan, one name shapes the rhythm of the city: PT Pupuk Kaltim. Thousands of its employees and their families live here, raise their kids here, and call it home. When the shift ends, they need somewhere to move, somewhere to play, somewhere to be together.
Pupuk Kaltim asked us to build exactly that. On one site, we delivered three facilities at once: a multifunction indoor sports hall, a mini soccer pitch, and a children’s playground. The standards we bring to national and international venues (see our portfolio) we brought to Bontang, right-sized for an industrial city and the community that powers it.
The Multifunction Indoor Hall: One Roof, Many Sports
At the center of the hall is a fixed Junckers Unobat 53 wooden floor, installed by us as Junckers’ official distributor in Indonesia. It meets FIBA standards and anchors the main basketball court. For badminton and volleyball, we added portable Datra Sports vinyl that rolls out when it is needed and stores away when it is not. In minutes, a competition basketball court becomes a badminton or volleyball arena.
We equipped the hall with portable gear throughout: basketball hoops, volleyball posts, badminton posts, and futsal goals. The seating works on two tiers, with VVIP Avant Horit seats for honored guests and Avant Hilo Round seats for everyone else. A videotron, a scoreboard, and LED flood lighting make it ready for an official match or an internal event on any given day.
And we went past the floor. We cleared the existing space, laid granite through the public areas, fitted the railings, and hung blackout curtains so the hall can go dark the moment a presentation or a ceremony calls for it.
Mini Soccer: A Field Built From the Ground Up
Outdoors, we laid two synthetic turf pitches, one full-size and one smaller, each with goals, corner flags, and player benches. Both were ready for training and inter-unit matches from day one.
What you do not see is where the real work went. Our team handled the earthworks and compaction, built the drainage, and raised retaining walls to keep the pitch level and dry season after season. A covered grandstand with Avant Diamond Monoblock seating gives spectators a comfortable spot to watch the game.
We finished the floors and walls in granite and built out full restroom facilities. On the electrical side, we installed LED flood and high bay lighting, power distribution panels, and a full lightning protection and grounding system to keep an open-air venue safe.
The Playground: A Corner for Children and Families
We built the playground as a place for families to gather. The play structures are European-standard Kompan equipment, set over a soft, child-friendly Datra Sports Safescape surface.
We added custom furniture too: shaded concrete tables and seats, plus wooden benches where parents can sit and watch their kids play. Garden LED lighting, LED strips, and automatic photocell sensors keep the space lit into the evening, with nothing for anyone to switch on.
Underneath it all is proper civil work: drainage, compacted ground, and concrete structures. A garden gate and perimeter fence enclose the area, finished in weather-resistant paint to stand up to Bontang’s coastal air.
A Space That Will Live On
In a city built around industry, a place to play is worth more than it looks. This is where employees switch off, where children grow up, and where families spend their weekends. We built it layer by layer, from the first demolition to the last light switched on, so those moments keep happening for years to come.
