"At MSS International, sustainability is at the core of our mission to advance global electrification. We take pride in being part of the energy transition and recognize our responsibility to drive real, lasting impact. Our focus on sustainability began decades ago, long before it became a global priority. Today, our facilities in India stand as a model for sustainable manufacturing in our industry, demonstrating what's possible through long-term vision and responsible innovation. We continue to reduce our environmental footprint, invest in cleaner technologies, and empower our global teams to contribute to a more resilient, sustainable future. For us, sustainability isn’t a goal, it’s how we work every day."
