A Building That Holds Our History. A Legacy That Continues Through Aluminium.
Some buildings are more than structures of steel, glass, and aluminium.
They carry memories. They witness the growth of a city. And sometimes, they hold a story that connects generations.
For ALCA Metals, Thamrin Plaza in Medan, Indonesia, is one of those buildings.
Decades ago, the founder of PT Alfo Citra Abadi, the company behind ALCA Metals, helped bring the building’s original aluminium facade to life during the early years of the company’s journey.
Today, that story comes full circle.
As Thamrin Plaza undergoes its transformation, ALCA Metals returns to contribute to the building’s renewed appearance with export-quality aluminium extrusion profiles manufactured by PT Alfo Citra Abadi.
It is more than a facade renovation.
It is a return to where part of our story began.
Thamrin Plaza: Where Our Aluminium Legacy Began
Long before ALCA Metals developed its manufacturing capabilities to serve international markets, its journey was shaped by projects that helped define its foundation.
Among them was Thamrin Plaza.
The building’s original facade represents an important milestone in the history of PT Alfo Citra Abadi and its founder.
At a time when the company was establishing its presence in the aluminium industry, contributing to the facade of such a recognizable building was a meaningful achievement.
Years passed. The city continued to develop. Architectural trends evolved, and aluminium manufacturing technology advanced.
Yet the connection between ALCA Metals and Thamrin Plaza remained part of the company’s history.
Today, the opportunity to contribute once again to the same building carries a meaning that extends far beyond manufacturing.
The building that once marked an early chapter of our journey is now part of our story again.
A New Chapter: Rebuilding with Modernize Aluminium Extrusion Facade
The renewal of Thamrin Plaza represents a new chapter for both the building and ALCA Metals.
The same company whose founder contributed to its original facade is now supplying aluminium extrusion for its renewed architectural appearance.
But much has changed since the original project.
Over the decades, PT Alfo Citra Abadi has continued developing its aluminium manufacturing capabilities, expanding its production infrastructure and strengthening its ability to serve increasingly diverse industrial requirements.
Today, the aluminium extrusion used in the Thamrin Plaza renewal comes from a manufacturing ecosystem developed to support both domestic projects and international customers.
For ALCA Metals, this creates a meaningful connection between past and present.
A facade that began with our founder’s vision is being renewed with the aluminium manufacturing capabilities that vision helped build.
Aluminium Extrusion Facade: Where Engineering Meets Architecture
An architectural facade is more than the exterior appearance of a building.
It helps define the building’s identity while supporting the practical requirements of its design.
Aluminium extrusion facade systems are widely used in commercial architecture because aluminium profiles can be manufactured in various geometries, dimensions, and finishes.
Depending on engineering specifications, aluminium extrusion profiles can be developed for architectural applications such as:
- Curtain wall framing systems
- Aluminium cladding support structures
- Architectural facade framing
- Louvers and sun-shading systems
- Decorative aluminium facade elements
- Custom aluminium profiles for commercial buildings
Aluminium offers a combination of relatively low weight, corrosion resistance, design flexibility, and compatibility with different surface finishes.
However, the suitability of any aluminium profile for a building facade depends on its engineering design, alloy, structural requirements, installation system, and environmental conditions.
At ALCA Metals, architectural aluminium extrusion is part of our broader manufacturing capabilities for construction and industrial applications.
The renewal of Thamrin Plaza demonstrates how aluminium manufacturing can become part of a building’s evolving architectural identity.
From Local Beginnings to Export-Quality Aluminium Extrusion
When the original Thamrin Plaza facade was developed, PT Alfo Citra Abadi was still in the earlier stages of its industrial journey.
Today, ALCA Metals operates as an integrated aluminium manufacturer in Indonesia, with capabilities that extend beyond conventional aluminium extrusion.
Our manufacturing ecosystem includes:
- Aluminium billet casting
- Aluminium extrusion manufacturing
- Custom aluminium profile development
- Surface treatment and finishing
- Precision fabrication
- OEM aluminium manufacturing solutions
ALCA Metals also operates a 6,000 MT extrusion press, supporting wide aluminium profiles up to 600 mm for suitable industrial and architectural requirements.
These capabilities reflect the company’s evolution from its earlier manufacturing activities toward a broader aluminium production platform.
The return to Thamrin Plaza therefore represents something especially meaningful.
A building connected to our beginnings is being renewed using aluminium extrusion produced by the company we have become today.
Custom Aluminium Extrusion for Modern Architectural Facades
Every building has its own architectural identity.
Some facade designs require conventional aluminium profiles, while others demand custom geometries, specific finishes, or additional fabrication processes.
Through its manufacturing capabilities, ALCA Metals supports the development of custom aluminium extrusion profiles based on technical drawings and project requirements.
For architects, facade contractors, developers, and engineering teams, this provides opportunities to explore aluminium profiles for a wide range of building applications.
Profile design, material selection, surface treatment, and fabrication can all influence the appearance and functionality of a finished facade system.
By combining extrusion with downstream processing, ALCA Metals aims to support the manufacturing requirements behind architectural aluminium projects.
Think Beyond Extrusion.
Because behind every aluminium profile is a larger purpose: the building, product, or structure it helps bring to life.
Aluminium Extrusion Indonesia: A Manufacturing Legacy with Global Ambitions
The Thamrin Plaza story is rooted in Medan, Indonesia.
Yet the capabilities developed by ALCA Metals over the decades are relevant to customers far beyond its home market.
For international buyers searching for Aluminium Extrusion Indonesia, ALCA Metals offers an opportunity to explore manufacturing capabilities for architectural, industrial, and OEM applications.
Our experience across aluminium manufacturing, together with integrated extrusion, finishing, and fabrication capabilities, supports discussions with global customers looking for potential aluminium sourcing partners.
For architectural projects, we welcome inquiries involving aluminium facade profiles, custom aluminium extrusion, and additional manufacturing requirements.
The story of Thamrin Plaza reflects the company’s history, while its current capabilities represent the opportunities ahead.
More Than a Facade. A Legacy Renewed.
There is something deeply meaningful about returning to a building that has been part of your company’s history for decades.
The founder who helped shape the original Thamrin Plaza facade established a foundation that would continue to grow through the years.
Today, as the building receives a renewed architectural appearance, ALCA Metals has the opportunity to contribute once again.
Different generations. Evolving technology. Greater manufacturing capabilities.
But the connection remains.
What began as an important milestone in our past has become a symbol of continuity in our present.
For ALCA Metals, the renewal of Thamrin Plaza is not simply about supplying aluminium extrusion profiles.
It is about honoring the vision that started the journey and carrying that vision into the future.
Built on History. Renewed for Tomorrow.
