The Group's Environment Week activities are an extension of its longstanding efforts to integrate sustainability across all operations — from making paper from wheat straw, adopting circular textile practices, shifting to renewable energy, and striving toward zero-waste manufacturing.
As the celebrations wrapped up, Trident reaffirmed its belief that collective, consistent efforts can create meaningful change, setting the tone for a greener, more responsible future.
