Our aim is to extract the utmost value from the waste material processed at our facility,” she affirmed.

Brands have shown keen interest to collaborate with Rudra Ecovation for using Anaura as the raw material instead of fabric looking at the quality, flexibility and comfort along with a green statement which Anaura brings to the brands.” said Ishani Malhotra, Head Anaura and Anaura Home.
