Batam, 28 November 2025 – Tunas Prima Industrial Estate today welcomed the official delegation of the National Quality and Productivity Convention (TKMPN) XXIX 2025, an annual national platform where Indonesian organizations showcase their innovations and achievements in quality and productivity enhancement.
Held in Batam from 24–28 November 2025, TKMPN once again entrusted the city as host for the fourth time. This year’s theme, “Strengthening National Competitiveness Through Productive and Sustainable Innovation,” brought together participants from multinational companies, state-owned enterprises, private corporations, government institutions, universities, healthcare organizations, and non-profit institutions.
As part of the industrial visit agenda, Tunas Prima Industrial Estate was selected as a strategic destination for participants to observe Batam’s industrial ecosystem and understand how the estate supports national productivity goals—especially through its sustainability-driven development approach. A total of 28 participants joined the on-site discussion and presentation.
Innovation & Estate Governance at Tunas Prima Industrial Estate
During the Focus Group Discussion (FGD), Chrispin Andereas, Head of Business Development at Tunas Industrial, presented the estate’s strategic initiatives and addressed key questions on operations, sustainability, and Tunas Prima’s readiness to meet future industrial demands.
1. Waste Management
Participants highlighted Batam’s waste challenge, with the city generating 1,300 tons of waste per day (DLH Batam, 2023) and landfill capacity projected to last only until 2030. To address this:
- Tunas Prima is the pioneering industrial estate in Batam to initiate a centralized Industrial Waste Management program.
- The program is built on four pillars: technology innovation, source-based segregation, centralized control, and converting waste into value.
- Waste is managed under an organic–inorganic–economic framework, with 50% recycled through a Materials Recovery Facility (MRF).
These efforts align with Batam City’s long-term plan for a more modern and sustainable waste management system.
2. Clean Water & Wastewater Management
To ensure sustainable water availability:
- Tunas Prima partners with SPAM Batam as the main clean water supplier.
- The estate applies Reduce, Reuse, Recycle principles through:
- WELS 3-ticks certified sanitary fixtures
- A Rainwater Harvesting Pond as an alternative water source
- Wastewater treatment via a Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) before discharge
3. ISO Implementation
Tunas Prima is currently undergoing the audit phase for ISO 9001 implementation, reinforcing its commitment to operational quality.
4. Mobility & Internal Transportation
Tunas Prima is designed as a pedestrian-friendly estate with safe and comfortable pathways within a 1 km radius from the main entrance to offices and warehouses. Pick-up points for taxis and online ride-hailing services will be available at the front entrance. Vehicle restrictions are enforced to maintain safety and order within the estate.
5. Innovation & Green Infrastructure
Tunas Prima is the first green industrial estate in Batam to receive the Green Mark Provisional Certificate from BCA International, supporting its vision of a low-carbon industrial zone through:
- An IoT-based Command Center for environmental monitoring
- Interconnected walkways and bicycle-friendly paths
- Drought-resistant landscape planting
- Energy efficiency and optimized resource use
- Eco-friendly landscape design with future expansion zones
Batam’s strategic position in the Singapore–Malaysia Golden Triangle further strengthens Tunas Prima’s role as a global industrial hub and a preferred destination for modern supply chain activities.
The TKMPN 2025 visit reaffirms Tunas Prima Industrial Estate’s position as a progressive, adaptive, and sustainability-driven industrial area. With modern governance and green infrastructure, Tunas Prima continues to support national efforts to enhance quality, productivity, and competitiveness.
