MAEKO and MTCC: Certified Timber and Food Waste
MAEKO and the Malaysian Timber Certification Council signed a collaboration at IGEM 2025, bringing responsible material sourcing and waste recovery into one conversation.
What did MAEKO and MTCC sign?
On 16 October 2025, MAEKO and the Malaysian Timber Certification Council signed a Memorandum of Collaboration at IGEM in Kuala Lumpur. Chelsea Chee signed for MAEKO and Dr Farrah Shameen Mohamad Ashray for MTCC.
The agreement concerns collaboration on responsible sourcing and waste recovery. It does not certify a MAEKO machine.
What the collaboration covers
The partners aim to encourage MTCS/PEFC-certified timber and forest-based materials in MAEKO's sustainable solutions. They also plan to explore awareness programmes, sustainability campaigns and training initiatives.
Why it matters to buyers
Responsible procurement considers both where materials come from and what happens to them after use. This collaboration connects those priorities while keeping product specifications and certification scopes distinct.
