Ester Industries takes commitment towards sustainability to a whole different level.

At Ester, sustainability forms the very essence of who we are and what we create. For more than four decades, we have been redefining materials with a commitment to innovation that nurtures both progress and the planet. Every action reflects our belief in growth that restores, renews, and respects the world around us.

Our philosophy rests on three guiding principles: reuse, regeneration, and responsible impact. These values are brought to life through high performance recycled films, energy efficient manufacturing, and the seamless integration of green technologies across our operations. Every product embodies our dedication to thoughtful design and mindful resource use. Through Ester Loop Infinite Technologies Private Limited (ELITe), our 50:50 joint venture with Loop Industries, a NASDAQ listed company in the United States, we are transforming sustainability in textiles.

We chemically recycle polyester textile waste into premium recycled chips, while empowering apparel, home furnishing, and textile brands to advance their circularity goals with confidence and purpose. Our processes are designed to minimise waste, optimise resources, and lower emissions, creating a continuous loop of positive impact. The goal is a truly circular ecosystem where materials live longer, energy is used wisely, and sustainability drives every step forward. At Ester, sustainability goes beyond commitment, it defines our identity.

Sustainable Process & Supply Chain

Resource Efficiency

At Ester, efficiency is engineered into every process we create. Our energy conservation efforts have led to savings of over 5.8 million megajoules, while daily water consumption has been reduced by 13%. Each improvement reflects our belief that progress must respect the planet’s limits. By integrating recycled PET resin with up to 90% post-consumer recycled content, we bring innovation and conservation together in one continuous loop.

Renewable Energy

Ester is transitioning to cleaner and lower-emission energy pathways. By switching to biofuels like rice husk for steam generation and expanding renewable energy use, we’ve reduced energy consumption by 5.88 million megajoules and water usage by 13%. The end goal is to move closer to a energy-efficienct and low-carbon future.
