Materials
 
Material consumption impacts the environmental and economic cost of produce. As a diverse conglomerate, we handle a range of diverse materials while ensuring that a singular philosophy runs through the Group. i.e. optimise material consumption, migrate to materials that have stronger sustainable qualities and constantly scan the market for new developments in material science.   We handle a range of diverse materials a
singular philosophy
runs through the group.
 
Absolute material consumption has shown a rise across all sectors as production has increased in some sectors. The improvement in the data collection and management as per the GRI guidelines was one of the four commitments taken in our first sustainability report of 2007-08. Over last two years considerable efforts have been made for putting processes in place not only for data collection but also for the monitoring mechanism. Therefore in the current year 2009-10, data related to materials has been provided with more details and better break-up as compare to 2008-09. However, the availability of data for 2008-09 in certain cases continued to be a challenge and hence has been denoted as 'DNA'.
