At T. Abdul Wahid Tanneries, creating a sustainable working environment, in harmony with nature, has been a genuine resolve since our inception. A fact that is supported by TAW being one of the pioneers in South India to equip our tanneries with a state-of-the-art effluent treatment plant (ETP) with a 2 stage reverse osmosis system and chrome recovery plant (CRP). With a goal to achieve zero liquid discharge, the tannery has set up a state-of-the-art mechanical evaporation system at its premises, due to which a total of 95% of water is recycled back into the tannery.

Giving back to society has been the onus and motivation for the group and TAW has invested time and energy towards social causes, taking up CSR activities in and around the tannery. A school run by its foundation, educates 2200 young minds and a road map is also in place for a college for women, empowering young minds for a bright future.
