In essence, the MPPG license is a benchmarking scheme for industries to comply with on standards such as safety, the environment, operations and processing criteria, to name but a few. With this license, Asia Plantation Capital is given the green light to manufacture, produce and process all agarwood and related products such as Oud oil, woodchips, bakhoor, incense sticks and more. The license also promotes market recognition of these products, and demonstrates excellence in quality control.
To obtain this license and receive the supporting documents, a thorough and comprehensive inspection was carried out over several months, not only by the MPPG, but also by other bodies such as the Fire and Rescue Department of Malaysia (BOMBA), the Department of Environment, and the Department of Occupational Safety and Health.
