Four manufacturing facilities of Asian Paints in Ankleshwar (Gujarat), Mumbai(Maharashtra), Kasna (Uttar Pradesh) and Patancheru (Andhra Pradesh) have been presented with the British Safety Council (BSC) Sword of Honour in a ceremony recently held at the historic Goldsmiths' Hall, London. The Sword of Honour is recognized the world over as the pinnacle of achievement in safety-management systems and is designed to encourage and reward best practice. This is the second year in succession that all four plants have received the Sword of Honour accolade.

During the stringent BSC audits, the four Asian Paints' plants not only achieved the five-star rating (the highest rating), but also recorded scores that put the plants among the 40 best manufacturing facilities audited by the BSC in 2005; these 40 are awarded the Sword of Honour.
