Green Architects 2023, an exhibition for a sustainable future, was hosted by Hulladek Recycling, Eastern India’s fastest-growing e-waste management company.

It served as a platform for numerous organizations working to change consumer behavior so that they choose environmentally friendly alternatives.

India’s consumers are willing to pay a premium for environmentally friendly goods, and urban Indians are anticipated to boost their expenditure on environmentally friendly companies during the next three years. The upcoming years are hopeful as consumer interest is increasing and the country is moving in a positive direction towards sustainable growth. The goal of Green Architect 2023 is to unite and support the stakeholders who are consistently creating new, sustainable, and environmentally friendly products.
