The All India Glass Manufacturers’ Federation (AIGMF) has joined hands with Swachh Bharat Abhiyan to promote glass as a sustainable packaging material.

“Ever since the announcement made by the government on Swachh Bharat Abhiyan (Clean India Campaign) and Smart Cities, Glass Industry has made sincere efforts to showcase glass as an excellent building material for smart and solar cities.

Similarly, glass being a sustainable packaging material supplements Swachh Bharat Abhiyan,” AIGMF President Sanjay Ganjoo said here today.
