Environmental Benefits of Purun Products

Discover how our sustainable purun products contribute to peatland conservation and help prevent devastating fires that threaten our planet's most critical ecosystems in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia.

Preventing Catastrophic Peatland Fires

Peatland fires are one of the greatest environmental threats to our planet. When peat burns, it releases massive amounts of stored carbon—sometimes equivalent to decades of fossil fuel emissions from entire countries.

Critical Environmental Facts:

  • Peatlands store 30% of global soil carbon on just 3% of Earth's land surface
  • A single large peat fire can release as much CO₂ as entire countries produce annually
  • Dried peatlands are 10x more vulnerable to catastrophic fires

Our Protection Strategy

By sustainably harvesting purun and maintaining healthy water levels, we keep peatlands wet and fire-resistant while creating economic value for local communities in Central Kalimantan.
