The protective gear has road safety messages printed on them, making the raincoat a beacon of road safety awareness. Since we believe in reusing waste for sustainability, the raw material used for the raincoat is made from recycled waste and the entire raincoat is recyclable. For the past six years, we have been getting very encouraging responses from corporates when we approach them for donations for Raincoats to the Police force. From the bottom of my heart, I thank all the participating Banks and Corporates who came forward to the noble cause of creating sustainable livelihood for the underprivileged which resulted in Raincoat suits for the Mumbai Police. We shall look forward to their continued support in the years to come."
