New Delhi, December 20, 2025: Sustainable building solutions provider Kerakoll has announced that its Jaipur production facility has been awarded the prestigious Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) Platinum Certification, the highest level of recognition under the Indian Green Building Council’s rating system. This achievement reinforces Kerakoll’s unwavering commitment to building responsibly, innovating sustainably, and advancing green construction practices across India. The certification reflects Kerakoll’s vision to design and operate environmentally conscious infrastructures aligned with widely accepted global principles of smart, efficient, and low-impact manufacturing.

It also reduces energy consumption by 30-40%. This milestone places Kerakoll among a distinguished group of organizations committed to shaping India’s future through responsible development and construction excellence.

The award was presented to Marco Della Porta, Market Engineering Manager, Kerakoll Group, along with key members of the sustainability and engineering leadership team. It was handed over by Jeff Oatman, Head of Collaboration and Membership at the Green Building Council of Australia.
