Fire Control

Fires and the resulting smoke and haze is a major concern for our employees and surrounding communities. They have also become a cross-border issue involving governments of different countries.

Our Fire Fighting Team at PT TR


To prevent any fire outbreak from spreading, we are channeling a lot of resources into enacting a wide range of preventive measures of fire management. Every single estate in our Group has an active fire team, with each personnel fully trained and equipped with a certificate of competence. From time to time our estates' fire brigades also offer assistance in putting out fires occuring in neighbouring villages or surrounding forest areas.

Watch towers are erected at strategic high points in our estates, and are monitored daily during the dry months when fire is susceptible. We take immediate steps to prevent any fire from spreading and also offers assistance to surrounding communities should any breakout occur.
