Environment

Protecting Our Planet,
Every Single Day.

Our environmental commitments go beyond compliance — zero deforestation, science-based GHG targets, and HCV conservation embedded in every hectare we operate.

Our Commitment
“We will never trade forest for profit. Our NDPE commitment is permanent, unconditional, and applies across every supplier in our value chain.”

Permata Group's environmental policy is grounded in science, verified by third parties, and reported transparently through CDP, RSPO, and our annual Sustainability Report.

NDPE Policy

No Deforestation, No Peat,
No Exploitation

Adopted in 2015, our NDPE commitment covers 100% of our own operations and is cascaded to all third-party suppliers through contract requirements, supplier audits, and satellite monitoring.

  • Satellite-based land use monitoring — annual deforestation alerts
  • Supplier NDPE verification — 100% of mills assessed
  • HCS & HCV assessments before any land development
  • Public grievance log with 30-day resolution commitment

No Deforestation

Zero conversion of High Conservation Value or High Carbon Stock forests.

No Peat

No development on peatlands of any depth, regardless of prior classification.

No Exploitation

Respect for human rights, free and prior informed consent, fair labour standards.

Climate Action
