Towards a Sustainable Future
Environment sustainability is a key metric of Tata Chemicals' ESG journey. We humbly acknowledge the impact of our actions on On the path of decarbonisation
environment and life on earth, and are committed to creating a more sustainable and equitable future for all. We are investing Cognisant of the impact of climate change and the importance of reducing our carbon footprint, we have committed ourselves
continuously in chemistries that drive sustainable growth for the company, and long-term value creation for our stakeholders. to minimising our greenhouse gas emissions. In line with our commitment, we have initiated various projects, with several more
Our environment commitments are inspired by Tata Group’s sustainability ambition, as articulated in its Project Aalingana. They in the pipeline.
