Here’s what Toyota Kirloskar Motor have to say about the campaign:

Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) today flagged off the Environment Month 2025, reaffirming its commitment to sustainability through the theme “Sustainable Resource Management Drive”. This initiative aligns with the broader goals of the Toyota Environmental Challenge 2050 and the global theme of “Enhancing Awareness Towards Realising Toyota Global Vision 2050”. The campaign aims to strengthen a culture of sustainability across the company and its value chain. A key element of this year’s focus is the adoption of ‘Zero-Base Thinking’ – a strategy that involves reevaluating all resources from the ground up and retaining only those that contribute genuine value, thereby promoting long-term sustainable efficiency through Refuse, Recycle (circular economy), Reuse and Reduce (4Rs).

Observed every June, Toyota’s Global Environment Month serves as a platform to drive action on critical environmental issues. The 2025 edition builds on the continual efforts to strengthen awareness and engagement, while also marking more than 25 years of TKM’s successful journey in India and reflecting its key environmental achievements through the theme ‘Journey to Green @ 25”. Some of the key environmental milestones includes:

• Achieved 100% renewable energy utilization for grid electricity, thus enhancing the pace towards achieving zero carbon emissions from manufacturing
• An impressive 89.3% of TKM’s total water requirement for production is met through recycled water and rainwater harvesting
• Adoption of effective waste management practices at the plant facilities, enhancing the recyclability of waste to 96%
• TKM has set-up one of its kind ‘Ecozone’ an experiential environmental learning center, spread across 25 acres of land, with 17 educational theme parks designed to imbibe ecological consciousness specially among children to develop them into eco champions. Thus far, TKM has achieved 42,000+ outreach including students and various stakeholders

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. B. Padmanabha, Executive Vice President and Director – Manufacturing, Toyota Kirloskar Motor said,

 

At TKM, environmental stewardship is deeply ingrained in our corporate philosophy and operational strategy. Environment month is more than just a calendar event-it serves as a call to action for every individual in our value chain to actively contribute to a greener future. Our commitment to ‘Zero Base Thinking’ pushes us to go beyond incremental improvements and embrace transformative solutions that create lasting impact. Each initiative is designed not only to engage stakeholders but also provide practical insights into sustainable living and green innovations

• Plastic Packaging Elimination: Targeting zero plastic packaging by 2030 (promote alternate package solutions), with immediate goals such as a 5% reduction in parts packaging and complete elimination of plastic based bottles, covers, cutlery by July 2025
• Promotion of Circular Economy: Introduction of upcycled products - copier paper, tissue paper, bags, and repurposed garment, reducing waste and extending material life
• Carbon and Resource Reduction Targets: Kaizen-driven improvements to reduce CO2, water consumption, waste and paper usage towards realising the goal of achieving ‘Plant Zero CO₂ by 2030’
