Our Commitment to Sustainability

At Interglobe, we are committed to reducing our environmental impact and carbon footprint, ensuring the safety of our employees and neighbours, helping to grow our supplier and customer businesses by providing them with sustainable solutions and ensuring the safe stewardship of products.

Interglobe has a number of ongoing sustainability and waste minimization initiatives, including the following

ec

Reduction in Energy Consumption

We use energy efficient lighting, motion sensors to turn lights on and off, and automated heating and air conditioning systems that turn themselves off during non-work hours. An energy saving project at our Korangi site in Karachi has reduced CO2 emissions by approximately 40 tons, by burning 10 tons less oil.

Transportation

Employees are encouraged to use vanpools, carpools and public transport, and we subsidize these programs. We continually upgrade our fleet of delivery vehicles, incorporating the newest engine and body designs to increase fuel mileage and reduce emissions.

Recycling Programs

Our facilities participate in recycling programs that include recycling or reusing IBCs, pallets and drums, paper, cardboard, fiberboard, aluminum cans, water bottles, and computers.

Greener Products

Interglobe is proactive in sourcing ‘green’ and natural ingredients for customers that wish to offer more sustainable solutions in their product ranges.

Waste Minimization

A strong quality control program, high standards for housekeeping, employee training, dedicated equipment and facility design upgrades all help reduce waste generation at our facilities. When waste disposal is required, Interglobe facilities look for the best method available, including recycling, re-use, fuel blending for energy recovery and incineration.

The impact of waste on the environment and our limited natural resources is a serious concern for individuals, companies, company stakeholders and future generations. Our staff is uniquely qualified to help our customers meet their waste minimization goals, whether by reducing the amount of waste generated, or by reusing or recycling what has already been generated.
