Manufacturing happiness is...
Ushering in an Era of Change

Amid rising environmental concerns and climate change, conventional practices of manufacturing need to be modernised with emphasis on green practices and technologies.

As a global industry leader, we are committed to the 'green concept' in manufacturing, because that is the only way forward to help combat environmental degradation and climate concerns.

Garden Factory at Neemrana

We have set up our eco-efficient fourth manufacturing plant at Neemrana in Rajasthan with a capital expenditure of over ` 550 crores. The new factory is based on the core principle of sustainable development, as we remain committed to maintain the highest ecological standards. Hence, the name 'Garden Factory'. With the commissioning of the plant (750,000 units of installed capacity) we now have a total annual installed capacity of 7.65 million units for two-wheelers.

The Garden Factory is equipped with multiple eco-friendly facilities, which are first-of-its kind in India:

  • Renewable energy: Entire plant structure is oriented diagonally based on sun path, enabling us to use same structure for putting solar PV panels; we have installed 1.5 MW solar PV modules across the plant.
  • Big Foot technology: This technology enables us to regulate temperature, ensure proper balance of oxygen and CO2 and minimises dust emission.
  • Green house: Hydroponics-based green house on rooftop (vegetable production houses for in-plant community) requires only 2-3% of water, compared to actual farming.
  • Green wall: Walls of the plant produce oxygen for people working inside it.
  • Automatic Storage and Retrieval System (ASRS): ASRS for vehicle despatch, with storage capacity of 4,500 vehicles, online vehicle tracking system, fully automatic vehicle handling system.
  • Recyclability: The zero liquid discharge plant recycles the waste water from any source; the plant has rain water harvesting technology in place.
