Environmental issues and climate change get increasingly
highlighted as nature declines at unprecedented speed and level.
Continuous innovations and mass movements become necessary to
soften impacts from the crises.
Korindo Group acknowledges the need to transform into a more
environmentally-friendly company by creating breakthroughs in its
various business units. An example of this is Cibubur Square Rest
Area, with which the company tries to alleviate organic waste
dumping issues. Operated by Korindo Group, the public facility
includes a bioconversion waste processing plant with BSF (Black
Soldier Flies) as its biological agent.
"Poor food waste management practices remain prevalent in many
places, and these practices bring negative long-term impacts to
nature and human health. That is why we built this facility," said
Seo Jeongsik, Korindo Foundation's General Secretary.
Aside from being environmentally beneficial, the bioconversion
process is relatively safe for the surrounding area and community.
Of all 800 fly species on earth, the Black Soldier Fly stands out
for its non-pathogenic nature and the absence of disease
agents.
This project marks the foundation's second collaboration with
Forest For Life Indonesia (FFLI). In 2018, they built a similar
plant in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara.
For years, Korindo Group has strived to be more eco-friendly,
especially in developing its businesses. Its Paper Division has
been awarded as an environmentally-friendly paper producer by the
UN Environment Programme (UNEP), due to its use of recycled
product.
As we know, recycling is one of the ways to solve environmental
problems caused by deforestation. Yet, despite using recycled
material, Korindo Group pays attention to product quality by
upholding ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System.
Korindo's Paper Division is one of the largest newsprint suppliers
in Southeast Asia. Its mill is provided with DIP (Deinked Pulp) and
paper machines with a total capacity of 330,000 MT per year.
Boasting such a large capacity, the Division partners with a number
of esteemed media companies, both domestic and abroad (Japan,
United States, European countries).
Korindo Group is also the region's only wind tower manufacturer,
with more than 50 years of operation. The wind towers help
industries generate environmentally-safe renewable energy.
The factory has a production capacity of 500 towers per year, and
received certification for ISO 14001:2000, ISO 9001:2000, and The
National Board of Boiler & Pressure vessel DIN 18800-7 Class E
Japan H-Grade. Today, over 3,000 towers (6 gigawatt) have been
created and delivered around the world.
Korindo Group, a leader across multiple industries in the South
East Asian market, have a lot to be proud of. Over our 50 years of
operation, we've built up our business by making a significant
contribution to the country's economic development while
simultaneously upholding environmentally friendly, future-oriented
practices.
