Hindustan Zinc, a Vedanta group company, affirmed its commitment on Wednesday to collaborate closely with India’s automotive sector to harness the full potential of zinc and propel the country’s mobility initiatives forward.
Zinc plays a crucial role in automotive applications, particularly through its use in galvanized steel, which offers substantial benefits such as fuel efficiency and reduced emissions. By providing exceptional corrosion resistance to lightweight steel bodies, zinc ensures vehicles are durable and long-lasting, backed by extended warranties against corrosion.
Arun Misra, CEO of Hindustan Zinc, emphasised the company’s dedication to offering zinc solutions that are not only cost-effective and adaptable to complex designs but also environmentally responsible. This positions zinc as a pivotal material in advancing towards a cleaner and sustainable future.
At the recent Automotive Component Manufacturers’ Association (ACMA) Raw Material Conclave & Exhibition, Hindustan Zinc showcased its extensive product lineup tailored for the automotive industry. This included zinc, lead, silver, and value-added products, highlighting the advantages of zinc galvanization and zinc die-casting alloys.
Having established itself as a longstanding partner to the auto industry upstream, Hindustan Zinc provides a diverse portfolio of metals for a wide array of applications. These range from car bodies to batteries, electronic components, additional accessories, and corrosion-resistant parts.
Hindustan Zinc’s proactive engagement underscores its pivotal role in supporting India’s automotive sector with innovative zinc solutions that contribute to both economic efficiency and environmental sustainability.
