Energy Conservation Initiative
Our facility has adopted and installed sensor-based lighting systems designed to minimize energy consumption. These smart lights automatically adjust based on occupancy, helping to reduce unnecessary energy use. This step not only promotes sustainability but also ensures we actively prevent energy waste, contributing to a greener and more efficient workplace.
A comprehensive housekeeping drive will be conducted across the office and factory premises, involving all staff members to uphold high standards of hygiene. This initiative supports our commitment to fostering sustainable environmental practices.
