As at 2019, more than 30% of Malaysia's forests (4.37 million ha) are currently certified under the PEFC certification, an international body that promotes sustainable management of forests across the world.
After joining as a Chain of Custody Holder in 2018, we had the incredible opportunity to develop finished products using our local certified wood - something that is still quite unheard of in our region since a large majority of our certified logs are exported as raw materials.
As a green manufacturer, we had the privilege of founding Malaysia's first PEFC-certified homeware brand, Dapo as well as Asia's first PEFC-certified home accessories brand, Oran & Bula. With these brands, we hope to expand to international markets with our unique range of locally designed and crafted certified products.
With support from Malaysian Timber Certification Council and Malaysian Timber Council, we are honoured to be recognised by PEFC for our efforts to advocate for sustainable production & consumption in our region.
A big thank you to PEFC International for featuring our journey!
One-Tech has been strongly advocating ‘green manufacturing’, and obtained PEFC chain of custody certification in April 2018. The company offers a unique selection of sleek customised kitchenware, and won the MTCC Sustainability Award for Product Innovation and Diversification in September 2019.
