How Harmony Additives is Driving Green Chemistry: Our Commitment to a Sustainable Future

At Harmony Group, sustainability is not just a choice—it’s our responsibility and commitment to the planet. From innovating APEO-free additives to running Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) units, our journey towards green chemistry and zero-waste manufacturing is deeply rooted in every process we undertake.
Our
Green Chemistry Philosophy
At the heart of Harmony Additives lies the principle of
Green Chemistry—designing products and processes that minimize environmental
impact and maximize safety for users and the planet. We develop
high-performance additives that:
- · Eliminate harmful substances like APEO (Alkyl
phenol Ethoxylates)
- · Reduce the carbon footprint of our customers' manufacturing processes
- · Enable paint, ink, and other industries to
achieve eco-label certifications
By focusing on eco-friendly raw materials, low-energy production processes, and biodegradable components, we ensure that every drop of additive from Harmony brings sustainability benefits downstream.
Zero
Liquid Discharge (ZLD) Units: Closing the Loop on Water
Water is precious, and we treat every drop like gold.
Our manufacturing units operate under a strict Zero Liquid
Discharge (ZLD) policy. Here’s what that means for the environment:
- · 100% Water Recycling: Every drop of process
water is treated and reused back into production.
- · Saving Natural Resources: By recycling water,
we reduce our dependency on municipal or borewell water sources.
This initiative reflects our long-term goal: not a single drop of waste water leaves our factory gate.
Responsible
Waste Management: Plastic and Solid Waste
We believe that waste is a resource waiting to be recycled.
Our plastic waste and other non-hazardous solid wastes are carefully collected
and handed over only to government-authorized recyclers and waste handlers.
By doing this:
- · We prevent environmental pollution
- · Support the circular economy
- · Reduce landfill waste
Our partnership with authorized waste management companies ensures safe disposal and maximum recycling of plastic and packaging waste generated from our operations.
Greenery
and Biodiversity: Our Factory Garden
Walk into our manufacturing site and you won’t just see
production lines—you’ll see lush green gardens. Our factory is surrounded by a
carefully maintained green belt that:
- · Reduces dust and air pollutants
- · Provides a habitat for birds and insects
- · Helps regulate microclimate around the facility
- · Promotes employee well-being and creates a
pleasant working environment
This isn’t just landscaping—it’s part of our commitment to replenishing green cover and offsetting our carbon footprint.
APEO-Free
Additives: Safer for People and Planet
APEOs (Alkyl phenol Ethoxylates) are harmful to aquatic
life and are banned or restricted in many countries. Harmony Additives has
proactively eliminated APEO from all our products.
Our APEO-Free Additives:
- · Meet eco-label standards
- · Are safer for workers during manufacturing and
application
- · Provide equal or superior performance compared
to conventional formulations
By making this shift, we help our customers meet their own sustainability goals and regulatory requirements.
Towards
a Greener Tomorrow: Our Ongoing Initiatives
Our journey towards green chemistry doesn't stop here. Some
of our other ongoing initiatives include:
- · Energy-efficient production technologies
- · Reduction in carbon emissions through process
optimization
- · Development of biodegradable and water-based
additives
- · Employee awareness programs on environmental responsibility
