Ambuja Cement makes it to the “A” list in Global Water Stewardship by CDP
.

Ambuja Cement has adopted a number of methods to optimise water use, through prudent utilisation and harvesting initiatives. 

Ambuja Cements Limited has recently been recognised for leadership in corporate sustainability by global environmental non-profit CDP, securing a place on its prestigious ‘A List’ for tackling water security. 

In 2020, Ambuja Cements is also the only company to be certified as 8 times water positive in the industry. Through significant demonstrable action to protect water resources, the company is leading on corporate environmental ambition, action and transparency worldwide. 

CDP’s annual environmental disclosure and scoring process is widely recognised as the gold standard of corporate environmental transparency. In 2021, over 590 investors with over US$110 trillion in assets and 200 major purchasers with US$5.5 trillion in procurement spend requested companies to disclose data on environmental impacts, risks and opportunities through CDP’s platform. 

A detailed and independent methodology is used by CDP to assess these companies, allocating a score of A to D- based on the comprehensiveness of disclosure, awareness and management of environmental risks and demonstration of best practices associated with environmental leadership, such as setting ambitious and meaningful targets. 

Neeraj Akhoury, MD & CEO, Ambuja Cements Limited and CEO India, Holcim said, “Water has always been the key focus area for Ambuja Cement. This is a proud moment for the company to be recognised for its improved performance in “Water Security” in CDP 2021 (Carbon Disclosure Project) with best ever “A” score. This achievement reaffirms our will to remain committed to address water scarcity issues in future and contribute to the establishment of sustainable tomorrow.” 

Ambuja Cements has adopted a number of methods to optimise water use, through prudent utilisation and harvesting initiatives. 

The company is constantly evolving its portfolio to reduce the risk of unsustainable consumption of natural resources, especially water. The three initiatives (Concrete Mix proportions, Modular Curing, and Rainwater Harvesting) helped the company in saving ~70 million litres of water, a robust step towards a sustainable construction initiative. 

Sustainability is embedded in the company’s core strategy, Ambuja Cements, in 2021, was again ranked 5th globally by the internationally renowned Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) in the construction materials category.
