        "content": "<p>PT Indonesia Asahan Aluminium (Inalum) has once again affirmed its\ncommitment to sustainable business practices by achieving Gold and Green\nratings in the 2025 Programme for Assessing Company Performance in\nEnvironmental Management (PROPER). The Gold rating was awarded for the\noperations of the Smelter Plant (ISP), while the Green rating was\nobtained for the operations of the Hydroelectric Power Plant (PLTA\/IPP).\nThe awards were presented directly by the Minister of Environment and\nForestry of the Republic of Indonesia, Hanif Faisol Nurofiq, who\nemphasised that PROPER has now evolved into an instrument for\ntransformation in the business world. According to him, PROPER is no\nlonger merely a tool for evaluating administrative compliance but\nencourages companies to exceed standards through innovation, resource\nefficiency, and tangible contributions to society. In the 2024-2025\nperiod, the number of PROPER participants reached 5,476 companies, a 22\nper cent increase compared to the previous year. However, only 282\ncompanies successfully entered the beyond-compliance category, including\nInalum. Inalum\u2019s President Director, Melati Sarnita, stated that this\nachievement reflects the consistent integration of sustainability into\nthe company\u2019s business strategy. \u201cThe company not only focuses on\ncompliance but also on creating value through the implementation of\nmeasurable environmental, social, and governance (ESG) aspects,\u201d said\nMelati in a written statement on Thursday (9\/4). Historically, Inalum\nhas recorded stable PROPER performance. The Gold rating was achieved for\nthe Kuala Tanjung Smelter Plant in 2022, 2024, and 2025, as well as for\nthe Paritohan PLTA operations in 2023. Meanwhile, the Green rating has\nalso been consistently achieved by PLTA operations in recent years.\n\u201cThis performance is supported by various environmental innovation\ninitiatives, ranging from energy efficiency, waste management, to\noptimisation of operational processes to enhance sustainability,\u201d added\nMelati. On the social side, the company implements community empowerment\nprogrammes based on a Social Return on Investment (SROI) approach. One\nflagship programme, \u201cFrom Waste to Blessing\u201d, serves as an example of\nintegrating environmental benefits and economic value for the\nsurrounding community. This achievement strengthens INALUM\u2019s position as\na strategic industry player that is not only oriented towards business\nperformance but also towards environmental sustainability and social\nwelfare. Moving forward, INALUM is committed to continuously improving\nESG standards and strengthening collaboration with stakeholders in\nsupporting the clean energy transition and sustainable development in\nIndonesia.<\/p>",
