Environment

Towards a Sustainable Future

At Colgate-Palmolive (India), we take our impact on the environment seriously and strive to minimize it by closely monitoring our environmental parameters such as energy and water consumption, waste generation, and recycling.

Our environmental management system addresses all critical areas, including resource optimisation, energy and water management, waste disposal, and sustainable packaging. By adhering to this framework, we strive to ensure minimization of our impact on the environment and acceleration of our actions on climate change. We continually evaluate our performance, identify areas for improvement, and implement corrective actions promptly.

We align our approach with our business objectives while complying with necessary environmental regulations and standards. Through collaborative initiatives, we integrate various management systems across our operational locations to review, certify, and improve systems. This standardized approach ensures access to best practices from other locations and reinforces existing management systems. We recognize that sustainability is a continuous journey and requires collective effort. Therefore, we remain committed to working alongside our stakeholders to achieve this shared goal.

We are pleased to share that we are making significant strides on our ESG journey, and as part of our commitment to enhancing our sustainability practices, we have made a change to our reporting boundary in our ESG report. We have included our Head Office, Mumbai in this year’s report to provide a more comprehensive overview of our sustainability performance, as a result of this change, year on-year data is not directly comparable.
