Marching on, he is looking to establish GRP as an&#13;<br \/>\nindustrial leader for climate change action by implementing an array of green&#13;<br \/>\nmanufacturing and business processes.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>The company has recently&#13;<br \/>\nput forward its Transparent, Accountable, and Professional (TAP) management&#13;<br \/>\nframework to showcase its strong and unwavering commitment towards fighting&#13;<br \/>\nclimate change.
