CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
At Avesta, through our CSR initiatives, we focus on building a better and more sustainable way of life for our surroundings through various outreach initiatives. The pillars of our CSR activities include
THE ENVIRONMENT
We believe in giving back to society.
At Avesta, we make every effort to reduce our environmental impact by conducting our business efficiently and as per the prevailing laws, regulations, and industry standards. We aim to use resources like water and energy efficiently; while reducing waste and minimizing emissions wherever possible. We expect our supply partners to apply comparable environmental standards and measures.
This approach has allowed us to significantly improve our sustainability performance year over year in waste management, occupational health and safety, and water conservation.
