Wooden furniture industry is an important industry sector in Indonesia, because many people’s welfare relyon this industry sector and the industry has a big social and environmental impacts. Many wooden furnitureindustries in Indonesia, especially in Central Java Province face problems related to the sustainability. The relationbetween wood suppliers and furniture industry is studied in this paper. A sustainable supply chain management (s-SCM) model is proposed as an approach for solutions for the problems. The approach is chosen due to the characteristics of the problems that related to economic, social, and environmental problems. This aim of this paper is to determine how much supply teak wood must be provided by PP to satisfy furniture industry demand, how much production capacity that must be increased and how large forest area that must be planted in order to achieve environmental and social goals without sacrificing economical goals much. Goal programming (GP) is chosen for solving the problems, because the goals are to maximize the total benefit,minimize the total loss and anticipate the conflicts between goals. Numerical trial based on observation in teak wooden furniture industry in Central Java was used to illustrate our findings. Using pareto efficient principle, the model can satisfy all goals that need to be achieved. Numerical results can be used by decision makers in teak wood industry to analyze the trade-off among several set of alternative solutions.

Indonesia has great potential in developing the furniture industry sector. The abundance of raw materials and high labor numbers should be optimized to encourage the furniture industry in Indonesia in the international furniture trade. However, in reality, the Indonesian furniture industry has increasingly been eliminated in the arena of international furniture trade. Therefore, it is necessary to consider how the furniture industry actually manages the company. One of the influential factors in furniture exports is how to manage the supply chain or logistics of the furniture industry, where one of them is related to the process of packaging and stuffing of furniture products. As a representation, this study tries to describe how the packaging and stuffing process is carried out by UD Surya Abadi Furniture, one of the furniture industries located in Sukoharjo Regency, Central Java. This research is a descriptive study, where data is collected by observation, interview, and documentation techniques. The results of this study discuss the packaging procedures, materials used and feasibility tests, and how the procedures and benefits obtained from the stuffing process at UD Surya Abadi Furniture. The conclusion obtained is that the description of the packaging and stuffing process that is carried out is quite good with the use of materials that meet the standards. Nevertheless, the process of packaging and stuffing at UD Surya Abadi Furniture is still done with manual counting so that it is not optimal.
