waste management
We are committed to reducing waste through the
recycling of by-products in all our operational activities.
Colour coded bins are provided throughout the estates
to separate the disposal of organic, non-organic and
hazardous waste.
As a responsible manufacturer of consumer products,
IndoAgri is starting to experiment with different packaging
options that can minimise the environmental impact of
consumer waste.
hazardous waste
All hazardous and toxic waste generated from the
operations is collected and stored in Transfer Stations
(TPS). The main hazardous waste is lubricants from the
palm oil mills. On average, each mill produces around
0.64 tonnes of hazardous waste per year.
The maximum storage duration is 180 days. The
hazardous waste, excluding lubricants and batteries, is
collected by PPLi, a company licensed by the Ministry of
Environment to destroy and dispose of hazardous waste,
and transported to a hazardous waste processing factory
in Bogor, West Java for proper disposal. Waste lubricants
are handled by PT. Bintangmas Cahaya International and
waste batteries are recycled by PT Non Ferindo Utama.
Another source of hazardous waste comes from the
aid posts and clinics. Medical waste collected from
these facilities is sent to local public hospitals that are
authorised by the local government for proper disposal
and destruction.
reducing landfill space through
innovative design
Through rigorous innovation, we are able to minimise
environmental impact by using innovative packaging for
consumer goods. In 2013, we will launch the 250ml and
500ml refill packs for Bimoli cooking oil. The popular
brand is sold in supermarkets and local stores, including
mini-marts and discount stores. The refill pack uses less
raw materials to produce, and the empty pack is easy
to collect and takes up less land fill space than other
form of packaging.
