Driving global innovation
A central highlight of the discussion was the role of the newly inaugurated Innovation Centre. Far from being a local hub, it is designed to be a cornerstone for the entire organization. Prakash Raman noted:
“The center is intended to serve the global Silox Group, not just India. We are hosting a global technical meeting in early March, where R&D leaders from other group entities will deliberate on programs that can be scaled globally.”
Commitment to decarbonization
Sustainability remains at the heart of Silox’s operations. The interview detailed the collaboration with Hindustan Zinc to transition to EcoZinc, which features a 75% lower emission intensity. This move significantly reduces Scope 3 emissions, allowing the Group to provide high-performance, low-carbon solutions to its international customer base.
