Sustainability and innovation is engrained into the culture of Maral starting from sustainability in production designs, sustainable practices in the industry in terms of standards and certificates, sustainable business models to environmental sustainability in the textile industry. It dwells on its professional strength while ensuring transparency in information sharing to the satisfaction of the valued consumers. We understand at Marval that consumers of today are better informed and increasingly expect ecologically and socially acceptable products along with sustainable solutions in the industry. Increasingly, as manufacturers also we are committed to tapping innovation potential and promoting sustainable development

Every step in the production chain focuses on different aspects of sustainability with production factors including water and energy consumption, availability of sustainable raw material, effects of waste production, use of chemicals including dyes and coatings to social responsibility towards the employees and the community at large. Here, sustainability standards and certificates are concerned with the safety of the consumer, the manufacturer, the society, and the environment at large. For Maral Overseas Limited, sustainability is an important principle of its corporate mission and as an organisation we take specific measures to be part with this ideology.


Energy Management: Keeping Focus on energy efficiency

Energy conservation has assumed paramount importance at Marval which is manifested through use of modern technologies to make sustainable yarn, fabric and garments. With Investment in energy-efficiency technologies and practices we have been able to meet the challenge of product quality maintenance with reduced production costs. This is especially important in the current scenario, as energy-efficient technologies often include “additional” benefits such as increasing the productivity of the company or reducing the water and/or materials consumption. These energy-efficient technologies also ensured optimal utilization of the equipments.

With this focus, we look forward to work with companies to reach sustainability goals and save our planet. We have installed in 1011 KW capacity solar panels which generate 1.4 million Units per year and helps in replacing the conventional energy usage.

Maral has been continually working on energy conservation through improved operational and maintenance practices. All the machines in the plant, at various locations undergo energy efficient audit through experts to ensure the quality and analyse the performance of the machines. The parameters analysed during the auditing helps in optimization of its working with decreased energy consumption during the process.


Water management: focus on efficient use and waste water treatment

We are part of intensive water use sector and thus enormous quantities of wastewater are generated from different manufacturing processes at our plants. At Maral, with commitment to our core value of sustainable practices as central to our business, we explore various opportunities for water reuse through use of best treatment technology and rational management of water use to make waste water reusable and recyclable.

Maral is making significant moves toward sustainability by undertaking activities through treatment technologies for treatment to recycle and reuse wastewater. This recycled water has the potential to greatly reduce the virtual water used in the industry. Sustainable water use and management are now recognized as bottom-line essentials at Marval not just in terms of efficiency but in terms of maintaining public health, growing water costs, regulatory pressures, consequently, public support.


Raw Material Management: We go for green

Cotton a plant-based fibre, is a primary raw material at Maral and thus more sustainable than synthetic fibers. Being natural, biodegradable and renewable, it’s a popular choice for brands, consumers and manufacturers looking to make more sustainable fabric choices. But cotton comes with its fair share of social and environmental risks as its production requires lots of water and can be chemically intensive, with pesticides that contaminate soil and groundwater and affect farmers’ health. This can have negative effects on water supplies, natural ecosystems and biodiversity, impacting local landscapes and communities.

At marvel we strive towards the scope for sustainable solutions by reducing consumption of water pesticides and fertilizers and opting for organic cotton or cotton grown using sustainableconservation practices as raw material.


Chemical Management: Promising consistency , Responsible Chemistry

Green Chemistry assures a series of reductions leading to economic, environmental, and social improvements Maral has recently upgraded its ZHD with latest zero liquid discharge system. All effluent water is treated and 95% reused in dyeing operations. Our chemical inventory is uploaded and maintained online platform to ensure that there is no banned chemical in store at any point in time. This offers an upstream solution to many of the health, environmental, and economic problems.
