Environment and Safety

Mr. P M Murty

MD & CEOAsian Paints approaches the environment issue from the perspective of waste minimisation

and conservation of resources. Thus, the continued attempt is to reuse, recycle and

eliminate waste, which results in less and less waste being generated. Accordingly, our

material losses in manufacturing have been reduced substantially over the last few years.Further, the company's four paint plants and the two chemical plants have the ISO 14001

certification for environment management standards. The company's latest manufacturing

facility which is situated at Sriperumbudur near Chennai will be certified for ISO 14001 inthis financial year 2006-07.

All our paint plants have achieved 'zero industrial discharge' capability. This has been

achieved by the installation of upgraded effluent treatment facilities and installation of

reverse osmosis plants in conjunction with appropriate recycling and reuse schemes. Ouremulsion manufacturing facility has also achieved 'zero waste' status. We have adopted the

principles of "green productivity".

Some of our innovative schemes which enhance green productivity are dealer tintingsystems which has resulted in large batch sizes ; bulk storage facility for monomers which

reduces wastage; Use of natural gas which is a cleaner fuel ; solvent recovery plants have

been set up which has resulted in zero reduction of solvent disposal ; Improved incineratingsystems and reverse osmosis.

Safety at its best

The company has made significant investments in the area of safety over the past severalyears. It's steadfast commitment to safety is reinforced by the fact that four of Asian Paints

plants were conferred with the 'Sword of Honour' by the British Safety Council for thesecond time in quick succession. The British Safety Council is the world's leadingoccupational health, safety and environmental organizations, working closely with the

world's leading companies in developing safe systems for work. The "Sword of Honour",

instituted by the BSC, is recognized the world over as the pinnacle of achievement in safety

management systems.

CII national conservation awards

Another recognition received in FY 2006 was the CII (Confederation of Indian Industries)

Award for National Energy Conservation received by the Ankleshwar and Patancheruplants. The award function was held at Vigyan Bhavan, New Delhi, where the Ankleshwar

facility in the state of Gujarat was honored with the second prize, while the Patancheru

plant in Andhra Pradesh received a certificate of merit. The awards were presented by HisExcellency, the President of India, Dr. A P J Abdul Kalam. The CII Award for National

Energy Conservation is yet another testimony of Asian Paints commitment towards the

continual improvement in our work process to help the environment through the

manufacturing excellence programme.

Few companies can claim of a history of consistent growth for over two and a halfcenturies , a presence in over 35 countries and an impact on the lives of over a billion

people. Berger does that with elan. Ever since it was founded in England in 1760 by LewisBerger, who perfected a new process for making Prussian Blue the colour of most military

uniforms then, Berger has never looked back.Over the years Berger expanded its operations across oceans, to cover numerous

geographies. In 1994, Berger units were brought under the single umbrella of the holding

company 'Berger International Limited (BIL)' with headquarters in Singapore, which wasalso listed on the Singapore stock exchange. In November 2002, BIL became a part of the

Asian Paints Group. Today, the name of Berger is synonymous with quality and

innovation. BIL has presence across three regions viz. Middle East, Caribbean and SouthEast Asia. In the Caribbean region, Berger is a household name. And considering that the

company celebrated 50 successful years in the region recently, this is not surprising.

Incidentally, Berger Paints Jamaica Limited, which is listed on the Jamaican stockexchange, is amongst the top ten companies in the country in terms of marketcapitalisation. In the Middle East too Berger is a well-respected brand. It is the largest paint

company in Bahrain. Using its state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities there, and in United
