Sustainable Palm Oil through Certifications
Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO)
Apical became an RSPO member under the category of palm oil processor and trader on 11 August 2011. Our refineries in Indonesia have obtained RSPO Supply Chain Certification since 2012. As an RSPO certified company and one committed to transparency in its business operations, we have been reporting our sustainability efforts through RSPO Annual Communications of Progress (ACOP) since 2014. We have also committed to achieve RSPO or relevant certification for all our existing processing facilities by 2022.
Check our progress at www.rspo.org
International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC)
ISCC has been established as the first certification system for sustainable biomass and biofuels. Apical has been adhering to its principles continuously since 2010 to meet customers demand in supplying low GHG materials for their production. As of 2019, four of our refineries are ISCC certified.
Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO)
We support the ISPO launched by the Indonesian Ministry of Agriculture in 2011 to create a single national standard for sustainable practices in the palm oil sector. The scheme aims to drive the competitiveness of Indonesian palm oil in the international market and helps Indonesia meet its commitment to ensure legal compliance as well as address other social and environmental issues. The checklist used during our Priority Supplier Engagement Programme (PSEP) is based on the ISPO Standard for mills.
