Orientbell Tiles, a leading name in the tile manufacturing industry, has consistently demonstrated its unwavering commitment to sustainability by adopting eco-friendly practices that have a positive impact on the environment. As part of its dedication to preserving the planet for future generations, Orientbell Tiles has taken significant steps to reduce its carbon footprint and minimize its environmental impact.
With sustainability at the heart of its operations, Orientbell Tiles has achieved the prestigious ISO 14001 Certification for Environmental Management, proudly held since April 2008. This certification reflects the company’s dedication to upholding the highest environmental standards in its manufacturing processes.
One of Orientbell’s notable contributions to sustainability is the development of Cool Tiles, a revolutionary product designed to reflect heat and reduce the urban heat island effect. These innovative tiles not only enhance indoor comfort by keeping interiors cooler but also contribute to a reduced reliance on energy-intensive air conditioning systems.`
To further reduce energy consumption, Orientbell Tiles has implemented a range of initiatives, including the use of renewable energy sources such as solar power, natural gas, and biomass. The company has also earned the ISO 15001:2018 certification, which highlights its commitment to continuous improvement in energy efficiency year after year. This commitment to energy conservation drives innovation throughout the organization.
“With sustainability embedded in our core values, Orientbell Tiles is proud to be a torchbearer in the industry’s journey towards a greener future. Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond business; it’s a promise to the planet,” said Mr. Anil Agarwal, Chief Operating Officer.
In line with its sustainable practices, Orientbell Tiles employs non-conventional fuels like sawdust in its spray dryers for the drying process, minimizing environmental impact. Waste heat from kilns is effectively utilized in spray dryers, making the manufacturing process more resource-efficient.
Orientbell Tiles proudly boasts a zero-waste discharge policy across all three of its manufacturing plants. All process waste and water are meticulously reused, and waste generated during production is recycled back into the tile-making process. Even broken or unsold tiles are recycled, ensuring that no waste is discharged into the environment.
Furthermore, Orientbell Tiles prioritizes the reduction of emissions from logistics by sourcing over 90% of its raw materials from vendors located within a 250-kilometer radius of its manufacturing facilities.
In addition to these eco-friendly practices, Orientbell Tiles is renowned for its green manufacturing practices, including extensive tree planting and annual plantation goals for its manufacturing teams. This commitment to environmental stewardship has earned the company recognition as one of the greenest manufacturers in India.
While celebrating its progress in sustainability, Orientbell Tiles remains steadfast in its commitment to ongoing improvement. The company continues to explore new avenues to enhance its sustainability practices and aims to leave an enduring positive impact on the environment and the world at large.
