Reports
【Reflection】
This programme was a business forum focusing on sustainable manufacturing in Indonesia and the implementation of the SDGs.
The opening session introduced representatives from the Indonesian Ministry of Industry, industrial estates, and companies. The forum aimed to strengthen collaboration with Japan, promote environmentally responsible manufacturing, and provide opportunities to support sustainable industrial growth. In his keynote address, the Deputy Minister highlighted government initiatives, investment promotion, export market expansion, and competitiveness enhancement. The forum provided opportunities for collaboration, business matching, and learning through product exhibitions.
During the forum, the Industrial Hills Industrial Estate presented case studies covering site location, transport infrastructure, the planned expansion of an electric vehicle battery factory, and the long-term involvement of Japanese companies. These presentations offered insights into the region’s sustainable industrial foundations and investment environment. PT Evergen Resources introduced a biomass business utilising microalgae, tiny organisms that produce oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide, which can also be used in health foods, cosmetics, and biofuels. The company is exploring the use of Spirulina and Hematococcus strains for sustainable environmental solutions and high-value products, providing a concrete example of environmentally conscious technology. PT Onduline Indonesia showcased initiatives including earthquake- and wind-resistant lightweight roofing materials, the use of recycled fibres, and reduced carbon footprint, illustrating practical approaches to sustainable product development.
Furthermore, MoU signings between government and companies, as well as collaboration with NEDO, highlighted the potential for technology transfer and international cooperation, offering information on long-term industrial development. Panel discussions and workshops shared insights on building circular economy-based supply chains, ESG and carbon certification, product certification and market access challenges, and possible solutions. These sessions facilitated exchanges and networking among participants and provided opportunities to learn from advanced examples of sustainable manufacturing, offering information that can inform future international cooperation and industrial investment decisions.
【Post EXPO Initiatives】
Following the forum, initiatives supporting sustainable manufacturing in Indonesia have continued. Companies such as Industrial Hills Industrial Estate, PT Evergen Resources, and PT Onduline Indonesia are advancing technological innovation and product development to expand sustainable industrial models. Collaboration between government and industry, including MoU-based international partnerships, is ongoing, and these efforts are expected to stimulate regional economic development and the growth of green industries.
In addition, ESG and carbon certification knowledge shared during the forum has informed the acquisition of certifications, supply chain improvements, and environmental impact reduction initiatives. Evergen continues to develop and commercialise microalgae-based products, expanding applications in health foods, cosmetics, and biofuels. Onduline is promoting the use of recycled materials and enhancing energy-efficient manufacturing processes to support the wider adoption of sustainable building materials. These initiatives also contribute to job creation and improved investment conditions in the region.
Moreover, opportunities for international networking and business matching continue, enhancing global recognition of Indonesia’s sustainable manufacturing sector and its potential for overseas market expansion. Leveraging the collaborative networks and technology exchange established during the forum, government, industry, and research institutions are working together to promote the ongoing development of sustainable and innovative manufacturing models. Moving forward, initiatives grounded in the principles of the SDGs and the circular economy are expected to advance, supporting both sustainable industrial development and environmental conservation.
