Birla Cellulose bags Golden Peacock Global Award

A part of Grasim Industries and a flagship company of the Aditya Birla Group, Birla Cellulose has bagged the prestigious Golden Peacock Global Award for Sustainability 2020, in the Textile and Apparel sector.

Ranked globally #1 by Canopy’s Hot Button Report 2020 for sustainable forestry practices and development of next-generation solutions for alternative feedstock, Birla Cellulose is a pioneer in sustainable sourcing practices. The company has able to neutralize its entire Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions by carbon sequestration due to the growth of its directly managed forests and has taken leadership in the climate change initiatives in the MMCF industry.

Birla Cellulose also leads in the lowest water consumption in viscose fibre production, and its Nagda site is gearing up to be the first MMCF site globally to achieve zero liquid discharge (ZLD) site later this year in 2021.
