New Delhi: Dalmia Cement (Bharat) Limited, a leading Indian cement major and a subsidiary of Dalmia Bharat Limited, has been awarded the
prestigious GreenPro Ecolabelling Certificate by the Indian Green Building

company, which is India’s 4th largest cement brand, is now the
first in its sector to receive accreditations by two prominent green rating
systems in the country– “GRIHA and CII –IGBC.”
CII-IGBC followed a life-cycle
approach to certify Dalmia Cement’s avant-garde blended cement product
portfolio including Portland Pozzoloana Cement (PPC), Portland Slag Cement
(PSC) and Composite Cement (CC) that are manufactured at the company’s plants
across India.
Commenting on the
accreditation, Sanjay Wali, Senior Executive Director and Head of
Sales, Marketing & Logstices at Dalmia Cement (Bharat) Ltd, said,
“As India’s leading pioneer in green cement manufacturing, we have always
stayed ahead of the curve with our sustainable building material offerings that
encourage circular construction and meet the needs of our eco-conscious
customers. We see GreenPro’s accreditation as a milestone in our journey to
becoming carbon negative by 2040. This also reaffirms our blended cement
product’s green supremacy that is accelerating the global transition from a
grey to green reality.”
Key parameters that the company’s
manufacturing plants were evaluated for are clinker consumption, energy and
water efficiencies, renewable energy, alternate fuel, carbon footprint and
alternate raw material used.

green accreditation from the Green product rating for Integrated Habitat
Assessment (GRIHA) council. The company was also Ranked # 1 in the global
