Tirupati Graphite PLC (LSE:TGR) released its inaugural sustainability report which sets out the company’s sustainability strategy and commitment to strong environmental, social and governance (ESG) business practices.
"We firmly believe scientific knowledge, its development and application are the mother of innovation,” said Puruvi Poddar, Tirupati's chief of corporate and business development.
“Innovation is a necessity to combat the most glaring global threats of climate risk, disparity in quality of life and responsible human activities.
“The opportunities of value creation in these challenges are immense and we as a global corporate citizen find ourselves bestowed with these opportunities.”
Poddar added: "We acknowledge that we are at the start of our journey and that as we grow, our strategies and plans will also evolve.
“However, ultimately, our ESG vision remains the same: to create a benchmark for the highest standards of ESG focusing on green materials, green technologies, social development and good governance to help build a better, happier and healthier world in which we live."
The report will be available on the company’s website.
