The Singapore Environment Council has restricted green certification for Asia Pulp & Paper (APP), an Indonesian firm, due to ongoing concerns about its supply chain’s connection to haze-producing fires. This decision follows previous scrutiny in 2015 when major retailers pulled APP products over similar allegations linking the company to widespread fires. The haze, a recurring problem in the region, caused severe air quality issues. The Council’s action signifies a continued emphasis on sustainable practices and accountability within the forestry industry. APP’s suppliers were implicated in the fires, leading to the certification restriction. This move aims to pressure APP to address the issues within its supply network and prevent future haze events. The situation highlights the challenges of ensuring environmentally responsible practices across international supply chains originating in Indonesia.
