UltraTech uses inland waterways to move gypsum

UltraTech’s participation in the pilot was supported by the Inland Waterways Authority of India and Inland & Coastal Shipping, a wholly owned subsidiary of Shipping Corporation of India. Use of inland waterways over roadways and railways will result in significant carbon emissions reduction. It will also help decongest roads and rail routes.

UltraTech’s participation in the pilot provides a boost to the Government’s efforts to promote use of inland waterways. The project has been enabled by the GoI’s revised Cargo Movement policy.

KC Jhanwar, Managing Director, UltraTech Cement said the company had partnered with the Government in promoting use of inland waterways in line with Maritime India Vision 2030 and Maritime Amrit Kaal Vision 2047.

The pilot movement over National Waterway 1 underscores UltraTech’s commitment to green logistics as an enabler to realise its Net Zero goal by 2050, he said.
