VISITED THE SUSEUM YET?

Not many museums allow you to touch, feel or experience what’s on display and this is what sets the Sustainability Museum in Chennai, apart. With an objective to creating awareness on adoption of green products and practices, this museum makes it easier to understand sustainability by providing practical awareness and educating society on the entire gamut of sustainability.

VALUE FOR WASTE

From compostable plastic cups to a vertical garden — Suseum includes an array of eco-friendly products and processes. From bio plastics to up cycling and waste water treatment, Suseum aims to bring together all the tools needed to build a greener world.Space and location has nothing to do with the amount of change you can bring in your own life.
