RAINFOREST CONSERVATION CARBON INSETTING INITIATIVE IN SRI LANKA

Ansell, a global leader in protection solutions and manufacturer of personal protective equipment in Sri Lanka, recently marked a major milestone in sustainable manufacturing and environmental stewardship. Partnering with the Carbon Consulting Company (CCC), Sri Lanka’s foremost provider of integrated sustainability solutions, Ansell recently launched an agro-forestry project to create a biodiversity corridor connecting Haycock and Dunawala, two separate and protected rainforests in the southern region of the island. The ‘Ansell Bio-Link’ will be validated and certified under ISO 14064-2, and will become Sri Lanka’s first forestry project to be certified under this standard and also the country’s first carbon insetting project.
