Bar heights show emission intensity in t-CO₂e per tonne of finished steel. A taller bar means more carbon for every tonne produced. Star bands follow the Ministry of Steel taxonomy: 5-star below 1.6, 4-star between 1.6 and 2.0, and 3-star between 2.0 and 2.2. At 0.527, Meenakshi TMT measures three times below even the 5-star threshold.

what it means for the planet

143,791 tonnes of Meenakshi TMT Green Steel. Here is what that looks like in real life.

Every tonne made the green way avoids roughly two tonnes of CO₂ compared to conventional steelmaking. Scaled to a full year of Meenakshi TMT production, the numbers get easy to picture.

~90 trees
Per tonne, per year

The CO₂ avoided by one tonne of Meenakshi TMT Green Steel equals what about 90 trees absorb in a year.

~63,000 cars
Off the road each year

Across a year of production, the avoided emissions compare to taking around 63,000 cars off Indian roads.

3x cleaner
Than the 5-star threshold

An emission intensity of 0.527 against the 1.6 five-star cutoff. Most steel does not come close.

green steel, answered

Answers, not jargon.

India's Ministry of Steel now rates steel by its emission intensity under the official Green Steel taxonomy. Meenakshi TMT holds the 5-star rating, the highest band, under certificate GS0058/01 issued through NISST. The certificate carries a QR code, so anyone can verify it is genuine.

Yes. It is the standard Meenakshi TMT Fe 550D bar. The rating certifies how the steel is made, not a different product. Same strength, same sizes, same Z-rib bonding.

The certification does not create a premium product line. This is standard Meenakshi TMT production, and day-to-day pricing follows the market like any TMT. Check today's rate with your nearest dealer.

The Hosur plant runs an induction furnace route charged with recycled steel scrap instead of virgin ore, and every batch is tested before dispatch. Lower energy plus recycled inputs is what drives the 0.527 number.

Yes. Certified low-carbon steel supports the materials credits in LEED and IGBC submissions, and Meenakshi TMT supplies the certificate and test documentation your green-building consultant needs.
