HEG Limited – Environmental & Social Initiatives
Ecological impact: The Company is completely conscious of the environmental impact its operations and actions can have on its surroundings. To counter this effect, HEG has in place efficient systems to reduce any undesirable fallout from its processes. HEG is an ISO-14001 certified company since June 2005. The Company has taken up the responsibility to further improve the ecological conditions around its facilities, by implementing a widespread forestation programme.
HEG’s Mandideep manufacturing complex is testimony to how serious the Company is towards improving the environment around its facilities. The Mandideep facility is considered one of the cleanest graphite electrode plants in the world, when seen in the light of the materials used and the products manufactured in the graphite plant.
The Company also believes in recycling and reusing any byproducts from its manufacturing processes. The Waste Heat Recovery System (WHRS) power plant is a fine example of this fact, as it makes productive use of the heat generated by waste gases that are released during the manufacture of sponge iron.
Community Outreach
HEG believes that local communities have a vital role to play in creation of wealth and to develop local society. HEG has various programmes to better their standard of living. To encourage education and the general welfare of people in Mandideep and its surroundings, a non-profit body Graphite Education & Welfare Society, was established in 1981. The Company operates a Graphite Primary School in HEG, Mandieep. HEG and its employees regularly come together to conduct medical camps, socio-cultural activities and other community work, often in partnership with local authorities and NGOs.
