Key environment
initiatives
Achieving sustainability in the
Company’s core operations is
critical in helping the customers
become sustainable in their business
operations. Your Company deploys
advanced technologies and energy-
efficient strategies in an endeavor to
create an eco-friendly environment.
Green energy
A 930-kilowatt solar plant was
commissioned at the factory at Maneja
in Gujarat. The Company has taken
several initiatives to transition to
low carbon fuels such as PNG in its
operations. Further, retrofit emission
control devices were installed on the
existing two diesel generators at the
Mysuru facility.
Water management
Water meters and rainwater recharge
wells were installed at the Peenya
and Maneja facilities. Furthermore,
the Company uses 32% of Sewage
Treatment Plant (STP) treated
water for gardening purposes at all
manufacturing facilities and has taken
initiatives to recharge groundwater
through rainwater harvesting wells.
Waste management
A slew of measures have been
undertaken on waste management,
which included plastic segregation,
recycling, diverting oily quartz as
refuse-derived fuel at the Maneja
facility from landfill.
