Biomass Supplies First Smallholder Project in Southeast Asia to Earn RSB Certification

Biomass Supplies (Pvt) Ltd, a company based in Sri Lanka, earned RSB certification for biomass produced from branches pruned from live fences of Gliricidia trees. The certification covers Biomass Supplies’ work with 30,000 small farmers who have planted 60 million new trees on their fences. Biomass Supplies is the first operation in Southeast Asia to earn RSB certification and the first smallholder project to become RSB certified in Asia. Sustainability, traceability, and accreditation will enable Biomass Supplies to command fair prices which in turn will provide local farmers with a better income.
