Overall, conservation initiatives across the Group have enabled Brandix to reduce electricity consumption per product by 12 per cent in 2013-14 over the previous year, and cut water consumption by 2.6 per cent during the same period. In September 2012, Brandix set itself the target of reducing its environmental footprint by a further 20 per cent by 2020, and released its maiden Sustainability Report, the first by a private company in Sri Lanka. To support this initiative and track its progress, the Group has developed its own ‘Eco Index’ -- an assessment tool which can be used to measure the environmental performance of Brandix factories and offices across the Group and facilitates a fair and easy comparison between factories and clusters.
