ESG

Introduction

As a responsible corporate, we understand the organization’s responsibility towards environment and society. As we embark on our ESG journey, we believe it is our responsibility to take holistic actions in making Finolex a more resilient, sustainable, and nurturing organization. We strive to build long-lasting relationships with our internal and external stakeholders through continuous engagement to understand their perspectives, needs, and expectations and integrate their responses into our decision-making.

As we stand on the brink of our 42nd year in the industry, we have embarked on our ESG journey to grow holistically as an organization and create value for all our stakeholders. We took our first step in this direction in FY 2021-22 by gaining the ‘Responsible Care’ accreditation from the Indian Chemical Council. Through this, we strive to drive continuous improvement in safe chemicals management and achieve excellence in environmental, health, safety, and security performance. It is our constant endeavour to deliver products and services of the highest quality to our customers while ensuring minimal harm to the environment and society. At Finolex, we remain committed to creating a better today and growing with changing times to create a stronger tomorrow.

A legacy that endures

For us at Finolex, sustainability is not something new. It has been our very essence over the years. Anything we do, has to be done well. Our every action takes into account the larger picture, right now, and into the future. Like the farmers we work for have taught us, the seeds of big ideas we plant today, will only bear fruit in the future. And we have the patience and the will to wait. Whether it is our products, processes, profits, plants, or our parivaar – our family of employees, farmers, dealers, homeowners, plumbers, and the communities we work with – or the environment, our every step keeps them all in mind. We invest in them, in their future, and in our collective future. For us, sustainability is not lip-service. Instead it is nurturing a legacy that endures.

Towards the future

We have many more miles to go, and we don't intend to sleep. There are still parched farmlands we yearn to irrigate, still cities we wish to course through, many industries still left to fuel and many millions of lives filled with potential that lie in wait for us to nurture. We also have a planet that needs to be healed and tended to, respected and nourished.

Over these last 40 years, we feel we are just getting started, and the hardest work still lies ahead of us, and that is what fills us with purpose and excitement for the future. The legacy we have built so far has brought together a large, thriving family. It is a legacy that unites. It is a legacy that makes the future bright and filled with possibilities.
