Through its Sri-Lanka-based manufacturing arm, Star, Komar continues to raise the bar in sustainable apparel production with the completion of two large-scale rooftop solar installations in 2024.\u00a0<\/p>

In July, Star\u2019s Kaduwela facility added a 600 kw rooftop solar system, now generating an average of 39,500 kWh per month and supplying 30% of the site\u2019s total electricity needs. On December 31, Star\u2019s washing facility in Katunayake completed a second installation with a capacity of 1,400 kw, producing 168,000 kWh monthly and meeting 75% of the facility\u2019s total electricity demand.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

With a total solar capacity of 4.9 MW across its operations, Star\u2019s renewable energy investments are making a measurable impact\u2014cutting greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing overall energy efficiency. These advancements reflect Komar\u2019s leadership in sustainability and its progress toward its 2030 renewable electricity targets and SBTi-aligned carbon reduction goals.<\/p>

In addition to its newest solar energy projects, Star is already home to the first Passive House in Southeast Asia and is Sri Lanka\u2019s first group of manufacturing facilities to be certified as carbon neutral\u2014helping Komar pave the way for new standards in sustainable operations, from energy and water conservation to greenhouse gas emissions reduction.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
