The Cement Manufacturers’ Association (CMA) appreciates the Government of India's commitment to achieving Net Zero and its efforts to create an enabling policy environment that supports sustainability, innovation and responsible industrial growth. The Indian Cement Industry is aligned to the Government's commitments on carbon mitigation and is accelerating the adoption of cleaner technologies, resource efficiency and circular economy practices while actively exploring the potential of Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) as a critical pathway for deep decarbonisation.
One of the most powerful ideas in sustainability is that waste from one sector can become a resource for another. By coprocessing industrial by-products and waste streams that would otherwise require disposal, the Indian Cement Industry helps close material loops, conserve natural resources and reduce the environmental footprint of multiple sectors simultaneously. Alongside this, the Cement Industry has made significant progress in improving energy efficiency, increasing the use of alternative fuels and raw materials and reducing its environmental footprint. Sustainability has long been embedded in the way we manufacture and is increasingly shaping how we innovate, invest and grow. On the occasion of World Environment Day, the Indian Cement Industry reaffirms its commitment to supporting India's development aspirations while contributing meaningfully to its climate and sustainability goals.

India's commitment to sustainable development and its Net Zero ambitions are helping accelerate the adoption of cleaner technologies and more resource efficient industrial practices. Sustainability in the built environment cannot be measured by emissions alone. It is equally about how efficiently we use resources, how effectively we minimise waste and how responsibly we create the infrastructure that will serve future generations. As a sector that forms the foundation of India's development, the Indian Cement Industry has a responsibility to balance growth with environmental stewardship.
The Indian Cement Industry is advancing this objective through greater resource efficiency, increased circularity, continuous technological innovation and ongoing improvements in manufacturing practices. On World Environment Day, we reaffirm our commitment to supporting India's climate ambitions while delivering the materials needed for resilient, durable and sustainable infrastructure.
