As JSPL continues to expand its business on both the domestic and international fronts, a greener and cleaner environment for all is one of its main objectives in its march towards progress. The need to protect our environment and conserve resources has been explicitly disseminated through its mission and vision statements. The company has taken a holistic stance for the protection of environmental resources and taken preventive measures as a part of its operation module.

JSPL works on the principle that an organisation can only grow in a competitive environment when it addresses economic, social and environmental concerns with a focussed approach.

In order to make itself environment friendly at all levels, the company adheres to necessary legal and environmental compliances and adopts various technologies as a part of the process.
