According to data from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK), Indonesia generates tens of millions of metric tons of waste annually, of which approximately 18% is plastic waste*. Globally, international trade regulations are also increasingly tightening standards for sustainability and the eligibility of recycled-content packaging. In response, BSN, in collaboration with PTB Germany, has initiated a project to strengthen the Quality Infrastructure (QI) to support the implementation of the circular economy. The visit focused on exploring laboratory testing capabilities, particularly regarding plastic materials, eco-friendly packaging, and waste treatment technologies. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sampahnasional.kemenlh.go.id\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through this collaboration, SIG is ready to support the technical readiness of testing laboratories to ensure that recycled packaging products and plastic materials meet Indonesian National Standards (SNI) as well as international quality standards. This includes testing for food safety (food-grade compatibility) in recycled packaging and analyzing the migration of hazardous substances. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through the integration of modern laboratory facilities, independent experts, and strategic cross-institutional collaboration, SIG is confident it can help accelerate the achievement of national circular economy targets, promote industrial supply chain efficiency, and provide maximum protection for consumers and the environment.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 25%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-7697 gallery-columns-4 gallery-size-medium'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/siglaboratory.com\/en\/supporting-the-acceleration-of-quality-infrastructure-for-the-circular-economy-sig-hosts-a-visit-from-bsn-and-germanys-physikalisch-technische-bundesanstalt-ptb\/ptb-2\/\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"188\" src=\"https:\/\/siglaboratory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/PTB-2-300x188.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/siglaboratory.com\/en\/supporting-the-acceleration-of-quality-infrastructure-for-the-circular-economy-sig-hosts-a-visit-from-bsn-and-germanys-physikalisch-technische-bundesanstalt-ptb\/ptb-3\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"188\" src=\"https:\/\/siglaboratory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/PTB-3-300x188.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/siglaboratory.com\/en\/supporting-the-acceleration-of-quality-infrastructure-for-the-circular-economy-sig-hosts-a-visit-from-bsn-and-germanys-physikalisch-technische-bundesanstalt-ptb\/ptb-4\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"188\" src=\"https:\/\/siglaboratory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/PTB-4-300x188.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/siglaboratory.com\/en\/supporting-the-acceleration-of-quality-infrastructure-for-the-circular-economy-sig-hosts-a-visit-from-bsn-and-germanys-physikalisch-technische-bundesanstalt-ptb\/ptb-1\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"188\" src=\"https:\/\/siglaboratory.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/PTB-1-300x188.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For more information on other testing services at SIG, contact us via WhatsApp chat at 082111516516, visit our website at siglaboratory.com, or come directly to our office at Graha SIG, Jl.
