NatureMetrics expands laboratory services into Indonesia to meet global demand for biodiversity monitoring

Global nature intelligence company NatureMetrics has expanded its operations in Southeast Asia with the addition of an in-country partner laboratory in Bogor, West Java, Indonesia. This opens up the business’ world-leading eDNA service to new and current clients operating in the region.

Due to the increasing international demand for biodiversity monitoring services, this expansion enables NatureMetrics to reach new projects in this critical biodiversity area, furthering the company’s commitment to driving positive impact for nature on a global scale.

With a high number of TNFD Early Adopters emerging in the APAC region, this expansion enables NatureMetrics to strengthen its global reach and better serve companies operating in the area striving to reduce their impact and improve reporting on nature.

By bringing advanced environmental DNA (eDNA) technology and nature intelligence expertise to Indonesia, NatureMetrics aims to empower local companies with the tools they need to achieve better outcomes for nature and drive sustainable development in the region.

One of the largest, independent testing labs in Indonesia, this partnership brings the same rigorous lab quality to a region of growing importance, while ensuring customers receive the same robust service.

Dimple Patel, CEO at NatureMetrics, said: "Recognising the urgent global call for scalable and meaningful biodiversity monitoring, our expansion into Indonesia signifies a milestone in our ambition to become the world’s leading provider of nature intelligence services globally. We look forward to supporting more organisations in the whole APAC region deliver vital biodiverisity insights to support their nature goals.”

Considered one of the top ‘megadiverse’ countries by the Convention on Biological Diversity, Indonesia is a biodiversity hotspot and opens up a valuable opportunity for NatureMetrics to expand its offering to organisations operating and sampling in the country. The lab was selected due to its impressive quality track record, with quality management ISO 17025 in place, ensuring NatureMetrics’ rigorous standards are upheld right across its global lab network.

Andrew Briscoe, Director of Science at NatureMetrics, adds: “This new partnership helps us to serve an important global hotspot for biodiversity, while ensuring we maintain the strict standards and conditions needed to enable the generation of high-quality data and insights.”

NatureMetrics provides an end-to-end biodiversity reporting solution, supporting businesses right across their nature-positive journey, aligned with major reporting requirements. The company is now working with over 500 customers across 100 countries, including Nestle, Tesco, Anglo American and Fauna & Flora.
