Sustainability in Mango Farming: How SKOT INDIA is Making a Difference

At SKOT INDIA, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a commitment to making a tangible difference in the way we farm, process and contribute to the environment. As one of the leading players in the mango puree and concentrate industry, we take pride in not just producing premium products but also ensuring that our practices are environmentally friendly and sustainable. Here's how we’re setting new benchmarks in sustainable mango farming and processing.

 

1. Reducing Mango Waste: From Fruit to Future

Did you know that mango peels and seeds account for a significant portion of the fruit’s by-products? Instead of discarding these, SKOT INDIA has pioneered innovative ways to repurpose them:


  • Mango Peels to Vegan Leather:

    Mango peels, often considered waste, are given a second life at SKOT INDIA. These peels are processed into vegan leather—a sustainable and cruelty-free alternative to traditional leather. This material is being used in the fashion and upholstery industries, contributing to a circular economy.


  • Mango Seeds to Industrial Bricks:

    The sturdy seeds of mangoes are not left behind. They are transformed into eco-friendly industrial bricks. These bricks are not only durable but also significantly reduce the environmental impact of traditional brick manufacturing.

 

2. Solar Energy: Powering Farms and Factories

Harnessing the power of the sun, SKOT INDIA has integrated solar energy solutions across its operations:


  • Solar-Powered Farms:

    Our mango farms rely on solar energy for irrigation and other farming needs. This reduces dependency on non-renewable energy sources and lowers our carbon footprint.


  • Solar-Powered Processing Facilities:

    Our factories are equipped with state-of-the-art solar panels, ensuring that the energy used to process our mangoes is clean and sustainable. This step not only minimizes greenhouse gas emissions but also promotes energy efficiency.

 

3. Sustainable Farming Practices

Sustainability starts at the root—literally. We employ eco-friendly farming techniques:


  • Natural Fertilizers and Pest Control:

    We use organic compost and natural pest repellents to maintain soil health and ensure our mangoes are free from harmful chemicals.


  • Water Conservation:

    Drip irrigation systems are utilized across our farms to optimize water usage, ensuring that every drop counts in regions where water is scarce.

 

4. Additional Practices


  • A Mango Tree for Every Ton:

    For every ton of mangoes processed, SKOT INDIA plants a new mango tree. This not only offsets carbon emissions but also ensures the sustainability of mango fharming for future generations.


  • Zero-Waste Vision:

    By 2028, SKOT INDIA aims to achieve a zero-waste production cycle, where every part of the mango and the energy consumed during its processing is either reused or recycled.

 

Why It Matters

The global demand for mango products continues to rise and with it, the responsibility to ensure that production processes do not harm the planet. At SKOT INDIA, we believe that the key to success lies in innovation and sustainability. By adopting practices that reduce waste and harness renewable energy, we’re not just producing fruit purees—we’re cultivating a better future.
