Commodity Specification & Sourcing Scope
GAR-Based Technical Specifications
Source-listed indicative baseline parameters across 6 standard Indonesian commercial thermal categories.
The values below are source-listed technical parameters preserved from historical trade data. All figures are indicative and subject to re-confirmation against official independent laboratory certificates (e.g. SGS, CCIC, Carsurin, or Surveyor Indonesia) prior to contract finalization and vessel loading. Actual quality may vary by individual parcel, specific pit origin, processing, seasonal moisture variations, and contractual rejection thresholds.
