PULP AND PAPER INDUSTRY & RCP DEMAND
Market value of packaging industry in Indonesia is 6,85 Million
USD, where 28% of total packaging materials segmentation is
dominated by paperboard packaging.
The packaging industry is predicted to grow as 6 – 7% each year.

WASTEPAPER IMPORT POLICY IN INDONESIA
Non B3 Wastes can be
imported if:
a. Do not come from landfill
activity or not in the form of
garbage;
b. are not contaminated with B3
and/ or B3 Wastes; and or
c. are not mixed with other
waste which is not regulated
in this Regulation of Minister
ARTICLE 4
1. In the case of the imported
Non B3 Wastes proved to
contain B3 Wastes, Non B3
Waste Importer is obliged to
re-export such wastes
maximum 90 (ninety) days
as from goods arrival based
on manifest document(BC.1.1)
ARTICLE 19
Regulation of The Minister of Trade No. 31/2016
concerning Provisions on Importation of Non Hazardous and Toxic Wastes
6 (h) Statement letter from Non B3 Waste Exporter
declaring that :
1. The exported waste is not B3 Wastes; and
2. Willing to be responsible and reaccept Non B3
Wastes that have been exported if such Non B3
Wastes proved as B3 Wastes
6 (i) statement letter from the applicant declaring
that :
1. The imported waste is truly Non B3 Wastes;
and
2. Willing to be responsible and re-export Non B3
Wastes that have been imported if such Non B3
Wastes proved as B3 Wastes
ARTICLE 6
PROBLEM EMERGED
Feb 2019 – August 2019
Many imported RCP
containers are contaminated
with residential (un-sorted)
waste and hazardous waste.
Previously, containers containing
imported RCP were in the green line,
but now all those containers are
categorized in the red line, therefore
Customs need to re-inspect at the port.
DRAFT REVISION OF REGULATION OF THE MINISTER OF TRADE
NO. 31/2016 INCLUDING FOR RCP/WASTEPAPER
More restrictive/stringent import conditions in the revision shall followed, such as :
The criteria should be clean, dry, and homogenous (for paper product
only).
Recommendation from Ministry of Industry and Ministry of Forestry and
Environment are needed.
10% stuffing supervision based on the lowest risk management is now
back to normal inspection (100% where 2 bales randomly need to be re-
opened).
Companies need to install equipment to handle impurities (prohibitive)
materials i.e. incinerator, etc.
1. Cleanliness and homogenous refers to
ISRI standard (Prohibitive material 2%
dan Outthrows material 5%).
2. Moisture content in origin country is
12% while in destination country is 15%.
3. The red line is only for MWP.
4. Decreasing impurity content for 4 years
starts by 2019 with 5% prohibitive and
decreases 1% each year, until 2022 it
achieves 2% prohibitive (ISRI standard).
5. Providing recycled center facility.
IPPA’s PROPOSAL TO THE GOVERNMENT
Registering the
warehouse to comply
international
standards.
Long Term
The compilation of the accreditation and
warehouse certification system is conducted
by KSO that is internationally valid.
Medium Term
Inspections were
conducted at each
warehouse/material
recovery facility.
Short Term
BENEFITS OF RECYCLING
Reduces the amount of material that needs to be landfilled
Reduces the need to deplete resources
Produces significant energy savings compared to virgin
materials, thereby reducing GHG
Realizing the circular economy
CIRCULAR ECONOMY
APPROACH
The circular economy model aims to use waste streams as a source of secondary resources and to recover waste for reuse
and recycling. This approach is expected to achieve efficient economic growth while minimizing environmental impact
(Halkos and Petrou, 2016)
In a circular economy, products are designed and optimized for a cycle of disassembly and reuse. The intention is to extend
the lifespan of consumables and to minimize the environmental impact of final disposal. For challenging products, such as
computers that are subject to rapid technological advancement and other durables containing metals and plastics that do
not easily degrade, better disposal solutions and reuse could be part of the design process from the start.

CONCLUSION
The definition of solid waste including wastepaper which can be recycled is still
unclear.03
The finalization of Regulation of The Minister of Trade No. 31/2016 on Provisions on
Importation of Non-Hazardous and Toxic Wastes is still in progress which make
wastepaper/RCP prices high domestically and internationally.
The paper industry based on recycling is impacted by the change of wastepaper
import regulation.01
02
CONCLUSION
All pulp and paper association in ASEAN and Asia need to cooperate and explore
what-to-do to solve these problems.06
Policy makers’ perspective and understanding on what materials are recyclable and
what is waste are still a challenge.04
Uncertainties continue from the unclear definition of waste and recyclable materials
of new Government regulation as well as the understanding of inspectors on what is
recyclable materials.05
