Udaipur, 3 November 2025: Hindustan Zinc, the world’s largest integrated zinc producer and among the top five global silver producers, has reinforced its sustainability leadership with EcoZen, Asia’s first low-carbon zinc brand.

EcoZen underscores Hindustan Zinc’s commitment to embedding sustainability into its core operations and advancing global climate goals. The product enables industries to comply with domestic and international carbon regulations while enhancing their sustainability credentials.

With operations spanning over 40 countries across Asia, Europe, and the Americas, Hindustan Zinc aims to make EcoZen the preferred low-carbon zinc solution globally. Through advanced technology, renewable energy adoption, and responsible production, the company continues to drive India’s transition to a low-carbon economy and establish new global benchmarks in sustainable metals manufacturing.
