Home  :  Knowing Maruti Suzuki  :  Social Responsibility  :  Environment Go Back Environment Initiatives to Reduce Reuse Recycle   Environment   While lending colours to our cars we have been extremely conscious that our facilities and our cars retain their Greenness to be environment friendly. Commitment and responsibility towards environment comes from our Green Philosophy- which   promotes 3R's- Reduce, Reuse and Recycle, promotes energy conservation, encourages green procurement and provides education on environment to employees and their   families.     Green Philosophy   Adopting the powerful mantra of Smaller | Lesser | Lighter | Shorter | Neater has inspired us to design & develop cars that are fuel efficient and environment friendly. We have successfully launched alternate fuel cars and are steadily progressing towards new engine series, which will help us bring EURO-V compliant cars on Indian roads. Over the years, the approach has only refined and the results are both pleasing and promising. Despite increased production volumes there has been a consistent decline in energy consumption. Thanks to numerous Kaizens and a concerted environment friendly approach, our total energy consumption per vehicle (during manufacturing) has come down drastically by 26 per cent over the last six years. In addition, power consumption has come down by 31 per cent while water consumption per vehicle has dropped by 63 per cent over the last six years. Landfill waste has also come down by 67 per cent over this period.           Designing Green Plants   Maintaining a Green plant has always been a business priority, perhaps that's why we were the country's first passenger car company to be certified for Environment Management Systems (EMS) as per ISO 14001:1996 in 1999. While designing any new facility, we try to absorb not only the existing best energy saving practices but also try to introduce new initiatives wherever possible.     The new facility at Manesar (launched in February 2007) has the following additional features       Translucent side walls and roof- that lets in abundant natural light there by reducing the consumption of   electricity. At the same time the poly carbonate sheets insulates against harmful UV rays. An advanced waste management module installed at an investment of Rs. 3 crore. This allows waste to be   burnt at a very high temperature to convert harmful chemicals into harmless gases. Independent water management and treatment plants.       A Green Team   A dedicated division of the company co-ordinates environment initiatives, employees and partners contribute in promoting the "Three Rs": Reduce, Recycle and Reuse so that stress on natural resources is minimal.       Green Appreciation   For our initiatives, we won the prestigious Golden Peacock Award for excellence in the field of Environment Management in Automobile Sector early this year.
