Introduction

The history of Syarikat Sebangun Sdn Bhd could trace back to 70’s when its predecessor; Glass Sand Company Berhad was established to mine and process silica sand in the northern part of Sarawak, East Malaysia.

Being the pioneer of such kind of ventures in Sarawak, the Company faced many problems during the early years of the company’s history . The shareholders of the Company did not deter but instead more committed and rendered more supports to the management team. The Company eventually went through a slow metamorphism and eventually evolved to be one of the leading suppliers of high quality silica sand in the region.

In 1985 in response to new economy policy of Malaysia Government, the Company went through a new shareholders restructuring by incorporating a new company called Syarikat Sebangun Sdn Bhd to accommodate new shareholders. Since then the shareholders of Syarikat Sebangun Sdn Bhd have been:-

• Sarawak Economic Development Corporation ( Government owned company )
• Glass Sand Company Berhad
• Lanco Corporation Sdn Bhd and
• Syarikat Maslahat Sdn Bhd.
