The company has partnered with Harsco Environmental, a global leader in sustainable metal industry solutions, to build and operate the facility under a 15-year partnership worth USD 150 million. This new collaboration strengthens the decade-long association between the two companies and will enable the Jajpur unit to become India’s first site with two wet milling plants.

Commenting on the development, Abhyuday Jindal, Managing Director, Jindal Stainless, said, “As we expand capacity to meet rising stainless steel demand, our focus remains on doing so responsibly and sustainably. The new wet milling plant, with benchmark metal recovery and waste management systems, will enhance slag utilisation and create new opportunities for local communities.”

In FY25, the company reduced its carbon footprint by around 14 per cent through decarbonisation measures, including India’s first green hydrogen plant for stainless steel production and the country’s largest captive solar power installation at a single industrial campus in Odisha.
