CII-ITC rewards best practices in corporate-led sustainability efforts

Sustainable development is not only a matter of consumer awareness and policy initiatives, but is also a matter involving industrial movers’ efforts. Not only because providing products compatible with a sustainable development increases their value for consumers, but also because achieving sustainability will ensure better long-term perspectives for industry.

With this in mind and for the sixth time since its creation, the CII-ITC (CII-ITC website) has handed out its Sustainability Awards for sustainable industry efforts. The grand winner of this year’s ceremony was Tata Steel, which won the Sustainability Prize in Category A for Large Business Organizations for the fourth time since the award’s creation. The prize rewards leadership and excellence for work to improve economic, environmental and social performance.

Aside from acknowledging best efforts in sustainability, the advantage of the CII-ITC Sustainability Award is that, during the process, the center conducts a thorough due-diligence, provides extensive feedback to participants, thus allowing them to improve their existing model. Not only does the center spotlight best examples of sustainable industrial developments, but it also provides a platform for sharing best practices, enabling other companies interested in sustainable development to implement the most effective processes easily. This has made the award a cutting- edge tool in promoting sustainability, raising the bar year after year while sharing key knowledge. We tip our hat to this remarkable initiative.
