We see this as a big step in our journey towards creating positive environmental and social impact and furthering our business philosophy of  ‘Clean & Green is Profitable and Sustainable.’ We will continue to lead by example and highlight the business relevance of sustainable practices in reducing carbon footprint and transitioning to a Grey to Green reality.”

Dalmia Cement’s blended cement products ‘Composite Cement (CC)’, ‘Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC)’ and ‘Portland Slag Cement (PSC)’ were evaluated by the GRIHA Council and listed as a green product in the GRIHA Green Catalogue under the Sustainable Building Materials.  Dalmia Cement’s brands DALMIA DSP CEMENT, DALMIA CEMENT, DALMIA INFRA PRO, KONARK CEMENT, DALMIA INFRAGREEN and DALMIA INSTA PRO are covered under this enlistment.
