This is a recent part of the green policy adopted by Zahra Dyeing Units. It includes reduction of the usage of water in all stages of its processes.

These efforts were streamlined in 2000 through the formation of a committee of internal experts to look regularly into issues concerning environment, health and safety. The committee is currently involved in the management of fresh water use, effluent management, and control on air emissions, energy conservation and maintenance of health and safety standards in the company. It uses guidelines provided by the National Environment Quality Standards (NEQS) as a benchmark, even modifying processes to conform to its objectives. CONTACT DETAILS:-
