SAFE AND NUTRITIOUS FOOD
HIGH NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF PALM OIL
Palm oil contains both fats and carotenoids, a rich source of
vitamins A and E. Both vitamins and fats, taken in moderation, are
essential for healthy growth and development of the human body.
Vitamin A maintains the immune system and eyesight, and is
required for gene transcription, embryonic development and
healthy skins. Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant, providing the
human body protection against toxins and removing free radicals;
it is able to regulate enzymatic activities and is essential for gene
expression and a healthy nervous system. Palm oil has the highest
amount of vitamin E of all the vegetable oils.
Fat is a part of the human diet, and it provides energy and
maintains healthy skin. Fats are also required for the essential
fatty acids which the human body cannot produce but requires
for good health. Both vitamins and fats consumption should be
in moderation. Palm oil does not contain any cholesterol or trans
fat, and is composed mainly of triglycerides of fatty acid with a
balanced composition of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids.
OUR PRODUCTS
IndoAgri’s table margarines are 100% fortified with eight different
vitamins. Indonesian National Standard SNI No. 01-3541-2002
requires vitamins A and D to be added into the margarines. We
have also included vitamins E, B1, B2, B3, B9 and B12 in our
margarines to supplement the Indonesian diet, which comprises
mainly processed foods made from flour and rice.
Processed foods have a lower level of B vitamin than unprocessed
foods. By adding B vitamin in our margarines, we are able to
increase the amount of essential nutrients for the consumers,
especially the children, and contribute to their healthy growth
and development.
Cooking oil products that are exported to the Philippines are also
fortified with vitamin A, as required by the Philippines’ Department
of Health Regulation RA 8976. In the reporting year of 2013,
4.5% of our consumer brands cooking oil product is fortified
with vitamin A.
The level of trans fats and sodium in all IndoAgri’s products are
lower than those required by the local food standards. No sugar
is added to our palm oil food products.
Our total sales volume of margarine and edible oils and fats was
790,000 tonnes in 2013.
TRACEABILITY OF OUR PRODUCTS
We are tracing our food products through the production and
distribution chain so as to identify and address food safety risks
and protect public health. Our Quality Assurance team conducts
regular assessments of the quality system and food safety standard
of selected suppliers. In the reporting year of 2013, all the suppliers
audited by IndoAgri met our food safety standards.
In 2014, our refineries started implementing a Food Safety
Management System (FSMS), based on the Hazard Analysis
Critical Control Points (HACCP) guidelines for all our food sectors.
HACCP is a preventive approach that removes hazards from the
production processes that can cause the finished food products
to be unsafe. The FSMS will be audited against ISO 22000:2005
food safety standard in 2014.
We tested all our finished food products in batches as required
by the Indonesian National Standard SNI No. 01-3541-2002 for
margarine, SNI No. 01-3718-1995 for shortening and SNI No.
7709 - 2012 for cooking oil. In the reporting year of 2013, all
IndoAgri’s finished food products have passed the food testing
and no food product recall was made.
Health and safety issues are considered, from product design
to storage, distribution and supply. All the packaging of our food
products is made from food-grade plastic materials. In the reporting
year of 2013, there was no incident of non-compliance with
regulations and voluntary codes of conducts for our food products.
SUSTAINABLE SOURCING
In 2014, 291,000 tonnes of our CPO were RSPO-certified, and
