Amrit Paper Mills Amrit Paper Mills ( apm ) has a plant at Saila Khurd in Hoshiarpur district, Punjab. Though the company claims to have an environmental policy, it seems doubtful as no documented proof of the policy has been provided. The company also claims to have environment departments both at the corporate level and the unit level. But as per the feedback of the cse surveyor, it seems that the company does not have an environment department.

apm uses agro-residues for raw material. While the source is renewable and the company's fibre-use efficiency has been increasing, the mill's fibre consumption per unit is increasing, which is a negative sign. When it comes to energy consumption, a major portion of the mill's energy requirements is met through rice husk
