TEHRAN, Sept 30 (NIPNA) — Jam Petrochemical Company has launched a project to implement the international ISO 46001:2019 standard for water efficiency, marking a major step toward sustainable industrial practices and environmental protection.

 

The initiative — carried out in collaboration with Tehran-based Open Structures Processing Engineering Company (OSP) and involving the company’s energy optimization, environmental, and integrated planning teams — aims to systematically manage water consumption, reduce wastage, and set a benchmark for other national industries. The project has reached 50% completion six months into its planned timeline.

The ISO 46001:2019 standard is not merely a certification, but a serious commitment to water conservation, environmental protection, and greener operations. Jam Petrochemical estimates that annual water costs total approximately 2,000 billion rials, and implementing the standard is expected to achieve at least 5% savings, equivalent to around 100 billion rials per year.

The company said the project positions Jam Petrochemical to become the first petrochemical facility in Iran to adopt a fully sustainable approach to water resource management, reinforcing its broader corporate goals of environmental stewardship and sustainable industrial development.
