AGI Greenpac, a leading player in the Indian packaging industry, has achieved the coveted Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) Platinum certification for its Specialty Glass Plant in Bhongir. This recognition highlights the company’s unwavering commitment to environmental responsibility and its efforts to minimize its carbon footprint through innovative and sustainable practices.
The Bhongir plant sets a benchmark in sustainability, incorporating measures such as:
- Energy Conservation: The facility features high Solar Reflective Index (SRI) paint on 100% of the exposed roof area to minimize heat absorption and operates a 0.904 MW solar power plant.
- Inclusive Design: The plant is designed for accessibility, offering ramps with handrails, designated parking, and specially equipped facilities for differently-abled individuals.
- Water Management: A 3,500-cubic-meter rainwater harvesting pond conserves water, and over 40% of the landscaped area features drought-resistant plants.
- Green Spaces: At least 15% of the site is reserved for green areas to enhance biodiversity and environmental health.
Commenting on this milestone, Rajesh Khosla, CEO and President of AGI Greenpac, said, “The IGBC Platinum rating for our Specialty Glass Plant is a testament to our commitment to sustainable development. We are taking bold steps to integrate eco-friendly practices in all aspects of our operations, aiming for a significant reduction in carbon emissions by 2030 and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 through renewable energy adoption.” Operational since 2023, the Bhongir plant produces premium glass packaging solutions for sectors like cosmetics, perfumery, candles, and alcoholic beverages, showcasing a balance of quality and sustainability.
