The company’s 2030 sustainable goals include achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions, 100% Zero Waste to Landfill certification for its manufacturing facilities, becoming water-positive, implementing sustainable sourcing, and conducting life cycle assessments for all its products.
STL announced in March that it had adopted the Science-based Targets initiative (SBTi) for more transparent and detailed carbon monitoring, control, and disclosure.
To achieve its net-zero vision, the company has focused on reducing energy consumption and transitioning to green energy sources.
Through efforts across its value chain, it has already avoided 15,000 tons of CO2 equivalent in carbon emissions, Ms Sharma said.
