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. The innovation achieves over 75 per cent lower carbon intensity than conventional zinc, setting new standards in green manufacturing and industrial decarbonisation.

Produced using renewable energy and certified under REACH standards, EcoZen helps avoid an estimated 400 kg of carbon emissions for every tonne of steel galvanised. It supports India’s Viksit Bharat vision by enabling low-carbon supply chains across automotive, renewable energy, and infrastructure sectors.

“EcoZen represents a significant leap in reimagining traditional industries through technology and sustainable innovation,” said Arun Misra, CEO, Hindustan Zinc. “By reducing the carbon footprint of zinc production, we are enabling our customers worldwide to meet their sustainability goals while strengthening our commitment to responsible mining and manufacturing.”

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.
