IndiGo and AAI Launch Zero-Waste Airport Project at Indore


IndiGo, through its CSR arm IndiGoReach, has partnered with the Airports Authority of India (AAI) and the AAS Foundation, Indore, to roll out the Zero-Waste Airport Project at Indore Airport. The initiative focuses on the 4R strategy—Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Recover—to minimise environmental impact and set a benchmark in sustainable waste management for the aviation industry.

The project processes 750 kg of daily airport waste on-site, reducing reliance on traditional disposal methods. A Material Recovery Facility (MRF) segregates dry waste into 10 categories for recycling, while a Wet Waste Processing Unit transforms organic waste into compost. This nutrient-rich compost is then utilised to enhance the airport’s landscaping, fostering a greener environment.
