Dilip Gaur, MD, and Rajeev Gopal, CMO, Pulp and Fibre Business, Grasim Industries Ltd and many other dignitaries were present at the launch.
Livaeco was incorporated into the designs of renowned designers Anju Modi, Wendel Rodricks and Gaurav Jai Gupta for the event.
Livaeco enhances the sustainability index of Liva, which itself is a highly sustainable fabric, through low water consumption, the use of raw materials procured by sustainable and certified forests and low green house gas emissions during the product development and manufacturing process. All of this is complemented by a unique traceability solution for ensuring source credibility.
