Horana
Our Sri Lanka plant is surrounded by lush agricultural land and domestic habitation.
Water is relatively abundant in the area, but the need to ensure that our industrial activities are not damaging to our neighbours has led us to implement a water treatment and recovery system that sees us now recycling 90% of our effluent back into process water, by a combination of chemical and biological treatment and reverse osmosis. The remaining effluent is chemically treated before safe disposal. This system has been fully operational since 2019 and, in normal circumstances would see us recover and reuse over 150 million litres of water per year.
