Vinita Singhania, Vice Chairperson and MD, JK Lakshmi Cement (JKCL), captains the company which will be the first cement company in India and across Asia to start commercial production of Portland calcined clay limestone cement (LC3). This is a milestone achievement as most of the cement will be supplied to Noida International Airport (NIA) and reduces the carbon footprint of the airport project. The estimated carbon footprint from this project is up to 35 per cent CO2 savings though the project has not defined a definite quantity. With the support of the Swiss Ambassador to India and Swiss Development and Cooperation in India, the project is one of the first of its kind in India, where demand for procuring low-carbon cement for a landmark infrastructure project will drive decarbonisation of the construction industry in the country
