Sustainability in cement and RMC
Compared to traditional concrete mixing, RMC is more uniform, resulting in less waste of natural resources such as water. Aparna has implemented numerous steps to reduce our carbon footprint. According to Reddy, one such approach is the utilisation of big storage bins to store RMC, ensuring a continuous supply while minimising fuel emissions from unnecessary transport. Kanodia explains how their company is reducing direct emissions by cooperating with transporters who use electric trucks to transport raw materials. To lower our carbon footprint, we use as many supplemental compendium materials as possible, such as fly ash and slag, to produce PPC/Composite/Slag Cement. We are dedicated to achieving net zero compliance. In addition, the company is installing solar power units near their grinding facilities. Finally, all other indirect emissions from the organisation’s actions come from sources over which they have no control. These often account for the lion’s share of the carbon footprint, covering emissions related to business travel, raw material procurement, waste management, water treatment, etc. Kanodia Cement prioritises suppliers of packaging materials with low carbon emissions. In addition to the preceding, we follow the rules for plant maintenance at regular intervals.
