Jindal Stainless Hisar Unit Achieves Zero Waste To Landfill

13 May 2026 CW Team

During the reporting period of FY 2024-25 the facility recorded a waste diversion rate of 99.99 per cent, indicating that nearly all waste was recycled, reused, or recovered with negligible landfill output. The assessment applied a mass balance methodology to quantify material flows and acknowledged close alignment with circular economy principles. The unit emphasised that the diversion rate reflects sustained systems for reduction, reuse, recycling and recovery.

Company leadership stated that the certification affirmed a long term commitment to responsible manufacturing and operational excellence and signalled intent to build resource efficient and future ready manufacturing ecosystems. The unit head characterised the 99.99 per cent diversion as a significant milestone driven by sustained attention to process efficiencies and environmentally conscious practices. Both executives portrayed the Platinum+ recognition as encouragement to pursue further performance improvements across operations.

The Zero Waste to Landfill benchmark evaluates elimination of landfill disposal through reduction, reuse, recycling and recovery and the Platinum+ rating denotes the highest level of performance reserved for near total diversion. Jindal Stainless reported an annual turnover of Rs 429.55 billion (bn) in FY26 and outlined plans to ramp up facilities to reach four point two million (mn) tonne (t) of annual melt capacity in FY27. The company operates 16 manufacturing and processing facilities and maintains a presence in 12 countries, with 10 sales offices and six service centres in India as of March 2026. The firm highlighted use of an electric arc furnace process to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote recyclability of scrap as part of its sustainability strategy.
