Environmental Policy
|
HeidelbergCement Bangladesh Limited Protection of the environment is an integral part of HeidelbergCement Group’s strategy. As natural resources are the basis of cement, measures for sustainable environmental care are adopted in all our operations.
In Bangladesh, our policy is to produce high quality cement, optimize operations to save on natural resources and prevent pollution in order to create a cleaner and safer environment.
We achieve these through:
- Limestone saving— replacement of clinker with secondary materials such as blast furnace slag.
- Decreasing fossil fuel consumption — use of waste materials as secondary fuel.
- Reduction of dust emissions — installation of state-of-art environmental protection equipment.
- Efficient energy consumption— selection of well-proven high technology for our new investments.
- Adherence to strict international environmental standards— ISO 14001 and compliance to local environmental legislations and regulations for all our plants.
- Continuous environmental improvement efforts
- The environmental policy is documented, implemented, maintained and communicated to relevant government and non-government authorities, employees, suppliers, customers and also to the general public.
- The Policy is reviewed annually.
