The original processing facility was constructed by Shin Asahigawa at Makakiwa. It was a mini-mill capable of processing at 10 ton/hr. The first large-scale processing mill was commissioned in 1980 at the current mill site following the acquisition of 50% of the shareholding by SIPEF in 1976. Although the Hargy mill was originally constructed as a 30 ton/hr FFB mill it has been extensively modified and expanded to a 45 ton/hr capacity and incorporated with a 2.4 tons/hr kernel crushing plant and a tank farm facility of 10,000 tonne capacity. An export wharf facility opened in 1992.

The mill currently employs a total workforce of 185 employees with just one expatriate.

Since 2004 the company’s milling and plantation operations have been certified as ISO 14001:2001 compliant. Further improvements have since been made and the company received certification under the RSPO www.rspo.org certification process on the 9th April, 2009.

58% of FFB processed at Hargy Palm Oil Mill is from small holders while the balance of 42% is from Hargy and Barema plantations.

ROUNDTABLE on SUSTAINABLE PALM OIL

milling_03.jpg - 8985 Bytes rspo_logo.jpg - 8142 BytesHOPL has RSPO (since April 2009) accreditation. This is crucial to our reputation as a sustainable producer of palm oil and a lot of effort, and expense was put into achieving this accreditation. Their maintenance and subsequent retention is of utmost importance to the company.

HOPL’s greatest achievement for 2009 was to receive certification to the RSPO Principles & Criteria for the mills, plantations and smallholder growers as a producer of sustainable palm oil. We are one of the few amongst other palm oil milling companies in PNG and also worldwide to be granted RSPO certification. Our RSPO certification audit was conducted by BSI in June-July 2008. After the close out of all non-conformities Hargy’s certification was officially registered and issued in April 2009. Our next surveillance audit is a combined ISO14001/RSPO audit to be conducted in April 2010.

The scope of certification covered Hargy’s supply base comprising its two mills, three (3) Plantations and Smallholders growers. Though HOPL’s has been certified as a producer of sustainable palm oil we believe and view this as an important aspect of our business operation and will strive to continuously improve on this achievement over the years.

 

ISO 14001:2004 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

BSI HOPL has been certified to the ISO 14001:2004 Environmental Management System since 2004 and has maintained its certification since then up till now.

As part of our commitment to safe environmental management, Hargy’s surveillance audit for ISO 14001:2004 Environment Management Systems (EMS) was undertaken in September 2009. After this surveillance audit Hargy’s certification to ISO 14001:2004 EMS has has been further extended for another term till 2011.
