Waste
By 2030, Galaxy aims to achieve 90% waste circularity and 5% reduction in waste generation intensity. In 2024-25, 77% of total waste was recycled, reused, or recovered, marking a significant step toward the 2030 circularity goal.
Our waste management strategy includes:
- Employee training and awareness programs
- Regular monitoring of waste generation
- Classification and responsible disposal of: Hazardous & Non-Hazardous Waste, Plastic Waste, Battery Waste, E-Waste, Biomedical Waste, Construction & Demolition Waste
World-class practices such as TPM (Total Productive Maintenance) have been adopted at our manufacturing sites over several years. We encourage our employees to share innovative ideas and challenge the status quo for alternative options of reducing, recycling, and reusing waste. To inculcate waste management as a culture, we have established programs like “Waste Elimination Suggestion Award Program” (WESAP) and "Galaxy Manufacturing Excellence Award" (GMEA). Galaxy also ensures emissions remain below statutory norms. We regularly monitor SOx, NOx, PM, and Acid Mist emissions and have installed Scrubbers and Electrostatic Precipitators to minimize environmental impact.
