WASTE MANAGEMENT
REDUCING & RECYCLING WASTE
We are committed to reducing waste, and actively use the by-
products from our agricultural processes as inputs. All our mill
outputs such as EFB, Palm Kernel fibre and shells, and POME
are 100% re-used as fuel or compost.
For our Edible Oils and Fats division, we offer a collapsible pouch
packaging that significantly reduces land fill requirement for
discarded packaging waste. In 2013, we continued to convert PVC
bottles to recyclable PET bottles, and now 100% of PVC bottles
have been replaced with recyclable PET bottles. (EN27 and EN28)
Colour-coded bins are provided throughout the estates to separate
the disposal of organic, non-organic and hazardous wastes.
HAZARDOUS WASTES
All hazardous and toxic wastes generated from the operations are
collected and stored in Transfer Stations. The main hazardous
waste is lubricants from the palm oil mills. On average, each mill
produces around 1.88 tonnes of hazardous waste per year of
which half are lubricants.
The maximum storage duration of the hazardous waste is 180
days. Waste lubricants are handled by PT Bintangmas Cahaya
International and waste batteries are recycled by PT Non Ferindo
Utama. The majority of other hazardous wastes are collected by
PPLi, a company licensed by the Ministry of Environment to destroy
and dispose of hazardous wastes, and transported to a hazardous
waste processing factory in Bogor, West Java for proper disposal.
Medical wastes such as used needles and expired drugs from
the aid posts and clinics are another source of hazardous waste.
They are collected and sent to the local public hospitals that are
authorised to dispose and destroy such wastes properly.
