Indonesia is the world's largest nickel producer and one of the largest coal exporters — with mining operations across Kalimantan (coal), Sulawesi (nickel), and Papua. International buyers in Japan, South Korea, China, and the EU require ISO certification from Indonesian mining companies as evidence of quality, environmental, and safety management.
Indonesia Mining — ISO Requirements

EV Battery Supply Chain and ISO
Indonesia's ambition to be an EV battery hub (supplying nickel to Tesla, Samsung SDI, LG Energy) is creating new ISO demands. International EV makers and battery manufacturers require ISO 9001 + ISO 14001 from their Indonesian nickel suppliers as part of ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) due diligence.
