Over the years, we have refined our processes to not just enhance the quality of our paper, but also leveraged responsible practices to protect the quality of the environment.

Some of the initiatives that the Company has actively embarked upon, as part of a sustained environment programme include:

Sustainability Initiatives An Institutionalised 3R (reduce, recycle and reuse) Program in line with International benchmarks. This is delivered by an optimal use of raw material resources, and a responsible waste management program. We continue to test this integrated environment management systems through rigorous internal audits. We also continue to benchmark various practices across our facilities in line with the demanding requirements of international certifications.

BILT is driving this initiative through one of the largest investments of its kind in India, These investments are being made in process technologies, ligning reduction initiatives, augmentation of effluent treatment, superior gas evacuation processes and various in-the-pipe and end-of-pipe processes and technologies.

Our subsidiary – BILT Tech Tree Ltd. is engaged in a concerted program with marginal farmers to develop a sustainable raw-material base on wastelands. It is a win-win partnership that goes beyond statutory requirements and which protects collective interests through assured buy-back arrangements, while accelerating the conversation of degraded marginal lands into a rich, productive forestry resource for the country. This collaborative farm forestry scheme is now an industry model for the following reasons:

It is channelising high quality planting stock at subsidized cost and offering free of cost technical guidance to farmers
It is generating an increasing supply of precious raw material, augmenting recurring income for over 13,000 farmers,
Reversing soil erosion in around 16,000 hectares of greened area across six states and helping to reconcile commercial and environment interests
