112 Maximal Wood Processing Policy & SVLK
By adopting a philosophy known as ‘Wood-wise,’
PT Sumber Mas Indah Plywood aims to maximise
the efficient use of roundwood while minimising
waste during production. Every piece of wood is
carefully utilised, ensuring no chips go unused.
This approach not only enhances the
ecological benefits of wood as a raw material but
also improves its carbon storage capabilities. The
company recognises that even non-recoverable
wood residues can serve a purpose, such
as being repurposed into renewable energy
sources like wood pellets.
SVLK certification further strengthens PT
Sumber Mas Indah Plywood’s commitment to
climate action and environmental sustainability,
promoting sustainable practices, both within its
own operations and across the wider industry.
