CIRCULAR PUSH FOR A CLIMATE-NEUTRAL FUTURE
The Machinist
|September 2025
Covestro is embedding circular practices, renewable energy and inclusive innovation to advance India's sustainable manufacturing journey.
Sustainability is no longer an abstract goal for manufacturers in India; it has become a business imperative. From power-hungry factories to waste-heavy processes, the sector sits at the heart of the country's climate challenge. Anand Srinivasan, Managing Director of Covestro (India) & Head of Polycarbonates - ISC, believes the way forward lies in bold targets combined with everyday action.
Covestro has committed globally to becoming climate-neutral by 2035, and in India the company is translating this ambition into visible milestones. At its Greater Noida facility, a large share of electricity is now being drawn from solar power. This shift, Srinivasan notes, not only reduces emissions but also makes economic sense in the long term. It is one step in a much larger journey that spans the entire supply chain from upstream raw materials to downstream applications.
