Ecobiz.asia – PT Chandra Asri Pacific Tbk (Chandra Asri Group) raised its score in the 2026 S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA) to 66 from 52 a year earlier, as the company strengthens ESG disclosure and transparency.

The company said the higher score reflects continued efforts to improve the quality and accessibility of information on its environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices. Publicly available information is among the sources used in the S&P Global CSA assessment.

Chandra Asri has expanded its public sustainability disclosures and supported its 2025 Sustainability Report with independent third-party assurance. The company said the measures are intended to strengthen the credibility and accountability of information provided to stakeholders.

“For us, strengthening ESG goes beyond improving reporting quality. It is also reflected in how we manage sustainability risks and implement responsible practices across our supply chain,” he said.

The company said the S&P Global CSA serves as a reference for assessing the development of its ESG practices within Indonesia’s capital market ecosystem. S&P Global works with the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) to provide ESG assessments for listed companies, including for the development of ESG-based indices.
