Foreword

Commitment to the Community. Four words that entail lives and define futures. As a responsible corporate
citizen ICI Pakistan Limited is deeply committed to the development of its homeland and its people.
Redefining social values for business, we support a distinct CSR policy, one that touches lives.

Since our inception, we have supported and encouraged social development initiatives and enhanced
infrastructure facilities in the health and education sectors of our country. As a leading multinational we
have a proud history of sustained investments in the Pakistan economy; in basic manufacture and as a
conscientious corporate citizen, aim to create superior value for our customers and shareholders, without
compromising our commitment to safety, health and the environment in which we operate.

Our unique CSR policy has not only touched the lives of those in need but has also had a deep and
resounding effect on the ICI Family; our employees. Each member of this family in their resolve and
commitment to their community have dedicated a small yet significant part of their lives, their souls,
their aspirations; all for the love of their homeland.

‘NURTURE’ is an overview of our humble efforts and our commitment to our community over the last
decade. As responsible corporate citizens we hope to nurture, to vitalize…to give an enriched sense
of life.
