3R PRACTICES

THE 3R MANTRA FOR SUSTAINABILITY RECYCLE. REUSE. REDUCE.

Recycle

We have collaborated with Toyota Tsusho Group and established a joint venture named Maruti Suzuki Toyotsu India Private Limited (MSTI) for vehicle dismantling and recycling facility in India.

In the first 6 months of its functioning, about 100,000 kg of steel, 19,000 kg of aluminium could be recovered from the cars that were scrapped.

Reuse

Through yield improvement projects, the Company as well as its supplier reduced the consumption of steel by about 4,300 tonnes in the year gone by.

What’s more, 100% of waste generated in steel was reused as inputs.

Reduce

Reduction, Reuse and Recycling of packaging material ensures that we continuously optimise its usage.
