Pyramid Technoplast Gets GPCB Recycling Approval
Pyramid Technoplast has received an amended Consolidated Consent and Authorisation (CCA) from the Gujarat Pollution Control Board (GPCB), allowing the Company to receive, collect, store, transport and recycle industrial packaging waste generated by third parties.
The authorisation covers empty barrels, containers and liners contaminated with hazardous chemicals or waste, with an approved handling and recycling capacity of up to 960 MT annually.
Under the amended approval, Pyramid Technoplast is also permitted to manufacture up to 9,000 cleaned barrels/drums and containers per month for industrial use or produce granules. This complements its existing capacity of 1,000 MT per month for plastic re-processed granules.
The development strengthens Pyramid Technoplast's integrated industrial packaging platform by expanding its capabilities beyond manufacturing into the collection, recycling, reprocessing and reuse of industrial packaging waste.
The expanded authorisation provides an opportunity to scale its third-party recycling business, deepen relationships with industrial customers and support a more circular and resource-efficient packaging ecosystem.
Bharat Dynamics Receives Major Defence Order
Bharat Dynamics Limited has received an order worth Rs 8.10 billion from the Indian Air Force (IAF) for the supply of the SAT-SAAW (Smart Anti-Airfield Weapon) system.
The SAT-SAAW is an air-to-ground precision-guided glide bomb that can be launched from platforms including Jaguar, Hawk and Su-30 MKI aircraft. Developed indigenously by DRDO, the system is designed to engage enemy airfields from a long stand-off range.
The system will have around 60% indigenous content, with further indigenisation of key subsystems such as the Initial Measurement Unit, Long Impact Delay Fuse and Twin Store Carrier, supporting India's defence self-reliance initiatives.
The order is a domestic contract and is scheduled to be executed over FY28 and FY29.
