various internal and external environmental initiatives.

:: Plantation

GTL has carried out an aggressive greening program around the plant’s vicinity because
we believe in restoring to nature that we take from it. Over the years the company
has planted more than 2000 trees. Free saplings are distributed to employees to
improve the environmental quality. We have developed a garden in the land leased
by MIDC opposite to our office. We have developed garden in an area of 1796 sq meter.
About 1800 sq. meters of the land are covered by green foliage which besides making
the campus green also acts as carbon sink.
