Aimed to raise awareness around one
of India’s most critical issues: safeguarding water to prevent waterborne
illnesses
Mumbai, November 5, 2025 : On its 50th anniversary, Sintex, India’s most trusted name
in water management solutions, has achieved a historic milestone — earning a Guinness
World Record for mobilizing over 31,000 people in 24 hours to pledge
responsible water usage.
The nationwide initiative aimed to raise awareness
about one of India’s most critical challenges — ensuring access to clean,
safe water and preventing waterborne diseases. Communities, partners, and
employees from across the country came together on a digital platform to take
the pledge, reinforcing a collective commitment to safeguard water and health.
Yashovardhan Agarwal, Director Sintex & MD Welspun BAPL Ltd– “This is an iconic
moment for Sintex, with 50 years of legacy and leadership in water storage
tanks. Water contamination and improper storage continue to pose serious public
health risks in India, contributing significantly to the spread of waterborne
diseases. Through this initiative, we are inspiring individuals to make a
simple yet powerful commitment – to store both drinking and non-drinking water
hygienically by regularly cleaning water storage units thereby preventing
contamination and safeguarding the health of their families. Every pledge
collected and every individual reached is a step towards a more responsible and
clean water-conscious India. This record-setting achievement marks just the
beginning of a larger movement!”
India bears a significant health burden from unsafe
water. Diarrhoea remains the third most common cause of childhood mortality,
accounting for nearly 13% of deaths among children under five. Sintex’s
initiative shines a light on how corporate purpose, innovation, and people
power can come together to make a real difference.
The pledge, hosted on a dedicated microsite, invited
participants to log in and affirm:
“I pledge to store non-drinking & drinking
water in hygienic condition by regularly cleaning the water storage unit in
order to prevent any water contamination and ensuring the safety of my
family.”
For over five decades, Sintex has been
synonymous with innovation, reliability, and quality in India’s water
management industry. Moving beyond storage, the company today offers end-to-end
water management solutions covering transmission (pipes), storage (tanks),
and treatment (sanitation).
All Sintex products are made from 100% food-grade
virgin plastic that ensure cleaner, safer water and protect families from
toxins found in recycled plastics such as BPA, phthalates, and formaldehyde.
