ISWA Features SUS ENVIRONMENT's Biodiversity Conservation Practices

SHANGHAI, Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The International Solid Waste Association (ISWA) has published a guest blog featuring SUS ENVIRONMENT's biodiversity conservation practices, highlighting how the company is integrating biodiversity considerations into environmental management, project lifecycle management and ecological restoration.

Titled "Nature Positive × SUS: From Tapirs to Mangroves," the article connects global biodiversity goals with SUS ENVIRONMENT's practices across different projects and regions.

In Malaysia, SUS has expanded its engagement from supporting Malayan tapir conservation in 2025 to participating in a mangrove planting initiative in Selangor in 2026, reflecting a progression from species and habitat conservation to coastal ecosystem protection.

Beyond CSR initiatives, biodiversity considerations are also being incorporated into project management. According to SUS ENVIRONMENT's 2025 Sustainability Report, the company applies environmental impact management throughout project development and uses the Integrated Biodiversity Assessment Tool (IBAT) to identify protected areas and Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) around project sites, supporting biodiversity risk identification and planning.

As SUS ENVIRONMENT advances waste-to-energy development and the broader ecological transition, it is extending its focus on biodiversity from species and habitat conservation to project lifecycle management and ecological restoration. These practices reflect three themes of SUS ENVIRONMENT's biodiversity approach: Protect, Restore and Coexist.
