The various strategies adopted by the company for recycling and reusing water included working for zero discharge, developing hydrophobia for water in unwanted places, eliminating all open drains, optimising/loading cooling towers to their 100%, reducing evaporation losses, radiator/air cooling, eliminating flash losses in steam usage, eliminating wastage, treating sewage and rain water harvesting. 

As a result of these efforts, the specific and per capita water consumption reduced and overall availability of water improved significantly.

This work won the CII-GBC National Award (Within the Fence Category) for Excellence in Water Management in 2008.
