In addition, in environmental sustainability, we also have Verification and Validation (VV) services for GHG emission statements. Companies can now ensure that the GHG statement will be communicated to external sources as well as other environmental information, such as waste management, water, and other environmental information,” said Mas Wigrantoro.
Head of PT SUCOFINDO Pontianak Branch Paolo Manurung added that apart from optimizing the mining sector, PT SUCOFINDO Pontianak Branch supports the potential of the West Kalimantan region with services in the plantation, agriculture, and environmental sectors. “Our laboratory is also equipped with test facilities in the environmental, plantation, and agricultural sectors.
