Companies too have become increasingly aware of their action’s impact on the environment and future generations and are looking at adopting sustainable practices. As a result, there has been an increase in the adoption of eco-friendly practices and products, and this trend will gain momentum as we move ahead in 2023 and beyond. This also aligns with the goal of Dekulture to promote sustainably sourced products towards improving social, economic, and environmental well-being of the larger ecosystem.
