Today, our planet is being challenged by sustainability issues such as climate change, water
scarcity, waste disposal, loss of biodiversity and more. These sustainability challenges have
implications for our environment, economy, society and global political scenario. Sustainability
focuses on meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations
to meet their needs. The concept of sustainability is composed of three aspects - People, Planet and
Profit.
Industries are one of the major contributors to sustainability issues and the cement sector is not
an exception. But, as one of the most responsible sectors, the cement industry takes all possible
necessary steps not only to reduce its impact but also make positive contributions towards the
environment and society. At ACC, we are committed to play our role responsibly and contribute
towards making this planet a sustainable one. ACC's sustainability strategy for the next decade is
defined through its Sustainable Development (SD) Plan 2030.
We work with different member organisations and trade associations like Confederation of Indian
Industry (CII), Swiss-Indian Chamber of Commerce, Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and
Industry (FICCI),Cement Manufacturers' Association, Global Cement and Concrete Association (GCCA)
India and more which help us achieve overall business objectives and commitments.
