Ahmedabad, October 19, 2026 — The Sanand Industries Association (SIA), in collaboration with Ingersoll Rand and Gujarat Industrial Development Corporation (GIDC), held the Stone Laying Ceremony of the Sanand Eco Park at GIDC Sanand. Conceived as a CSR initiative by Ingersoll Rand, the project aims to create a sustainable green space that promotes recreation, biodiversity, and environmental learning within the industrial zone.

The ceremony was inaugurated by Mr. Vicente Reynal, Chairman, President & CEO of Ingersoll Rand and Mr. Sunil Khanduja, Chairman, Ingersoll Rand India Limited.

Mr. Ajit Shah, President, SIA, shared his vision for Sanand’s development: “Sanand has grown into one of Gujarat’s most vibrant industrial hubs. SIA continues to focus on balanced development—combining infrastructure, welfare, and environmental initiatives. The Eco Park is a step toward creating harmony between industry and nature.”

Mr. Chetan Thakkar, Chairman, SIA CSR Committee, added: “Our CSR Committee channels the collective strength of industries toward meaningful change. Projects like the Eco Park enhance community life, promote green practices, and inspire sustainable models across industrial clusters.”

Spread across 12,000 square meters, the Eco Park will feature native plantations, thematic gardens, water conservation systems, and recreational spaces—symbolizing collaboration between industry and community for a greener future.
