🎯 Climate & Sustainability Targets
🔜 Short-term
- To sustain 100% water positivity through rainwater harvesting and groundwater recharge system.
- Optimise effluent treatment and maximise re-use of recycled water through RO and water treatment facility.
- Reduce dependence on non-renewable energy sources by optimizing energy consumption and encouraging consumption from renewable energy sources.
- Minimising overall scope 1 and scope 2 emissions to extent possible by optimizing fuels usage, sourcing alternative fuels, use of low environment impact refrigerants etc.
- Minimise consumption of packaging plastic in our operations to the extent possible by exploring use of more sustainable material.
📅 Medium-term
- To ensure the integration of ESG throughout our supply chain, we are undertaking assessment on ESG criteria for 100% of our non-industry suppliers by 2025.
