MRPL recognised with Silver Medal by IRIM

The MRPL has been recognised with a 'Silver medal' by the International Research Institute for Manufacturing (IRIM) for the year 2017. The award was received by Sanjay Varma, group general manager (HSE & ISO) and U V Aithal, general manager (HSE & ISO), at a ceremony in Chennai. This recognition is a testament to MRPL's work towards saving the environment by adopting green manufacturing practices.

Environment and sustainability are two important aspects of MRPL's strategic priorities. MRPL recognises that an increased focus on sustainability will create a positive value for the company, especially in the light of a wider global transition towards clean energy and more stringent environmental standards. MRPL has made rapid progress in improving sustainability factors associated with its manufacturing facility.

This emphasises MRPL's commitment to green manufacturing. Hence, as a measuring yardstick in comparison to other industries, for the first time, MRPL has subjected itself to a detailed "Priority adapt onsite assessment survey" as part of the India Green Manufacturing Challenge (IGMC) for the year 2017, organised by the International Research Institute for Manufacturing (IRIM), a platform designed to recognise manufacturing firms that have shown consistent progress in improving sustainability factors associated to a manufacturing facility.
