Detailed Corrosion Audit
Unique Strength and Initiative of CII
In an increasingly
interconnected and industrialized world, the importance of Corrosion Science, Mitigation,
and Technology has grown exponentially. Corrosion not only compromises public safety and
infrastructure but also impacts manufacturing efficiency and product quality across sectors.
As highlighted in NACE’s "IMPACT" report, the global cost of corrosion is estimated at a
staggering USD 2.5 trillion—amounting to 3.4% of the GDP of industrialized countries and
approximately 4.2% of India’s GDP. However, with strategic management and effective
corrosion control measures, these costs can be reduced by 25–40%, emphasizing the need for
urgent and sustained action.
CII – CMD follows a multi prong approach of Policy Advocacy,
Assessments & Audits, Capacity Building, Knowledge Sharing Platforms, Recognition & Rewards
