Hindustan Zinc has been a key initiator in adopting greener technologies. Last year, our Head Office - Yashad Bhawan became the first building in Rajasthan to be awarded with CII - IGBC (Indian Green Building Council) Platinum Rating under IGBC Green Existing Building rating system and was commended for achieving the same in the very first attempt.
It achieved energy savings of 27% and water use reduction of 37% due to green initiatives. The management as well as employees are committed to continue making buildings with zero carbon and zero waste. We are the first in the country to register for IGBC Net Zero Energy Building Certification.
