Our workshop uses minimum water and any used is recycled through the Common Effluent Treatment Plant which is part of the development. Water is used for making the colours and washing the colour buckets, blocks, and ink trays. Huge tanks are stored underground for rainwater harvesting during the Monsoon season. As previously mentioned, we use Archroma pigment inks and a binder which is made up of 80% water and 20% binder.

The workshop has been granted a ‘Consent to Operate’ certificate from the Rajasthan Pollution Control Board.

In the workshop itself, cloths are used for padding the tables which are then recycled and repurposed alongside scraps of the fabrics, thanks to the skills of the sewing team. They create bags and cushion covers to their own designs using the surplus and waste fabrics they salvage.
