According to SEC, the enhanced green labelling certification for the pulp and paper category was launched in January 2017 in response to the absence of peatland management and fire management in this category.

Along with the enhanced criteria, a comprehensive risk management profiling is adopted in assessing companies’ practices and standards. “APP has invested heavily in sustainability and fire prevention, to ensure that our entire supply chain is responsibly managed. With climate change causing dry seasons to become hotter and longer, fire and haze remain a real threat and requires a multi-stakeholder cooperative effort to overcome, and APP has upped its game in such efforts, building on the lessons learned from the 2015 haze,” said Bernard Tan, country president for Singapore at Sinar Mas.to address the haze issue.
