Marking the launch of the world’s leading trade fair brand for the integrated building solutions sector in India – ISH India powered by IPA opened its doors at India Expo Centre, Greater Noida.
  The 3-day trade fair has brought some of the market leaders of sanitation and plumbing sectors including Ashirvad Pipes Pvt Ltd, Astral Poly Technik Ltd, Ebara Pumps Europe S.P.A, Eureka Forbes, Geberit India, Matter & Plat Wilo, Prince Pipes Pvt Ltd, Rajco Metal Industries Pvt Ltd, Supreme Industries Ltd, Schell India Pvt Ltd, Vernet (France), Viega India Pvt Ltd among others who have unveiled market-ready products at the fair for the implementation of intelligent building technologies – a need of the hour for India’s urban development and smart cities.  
The Union Budget 2017 has ensured that sanitation is one of the top priorities for the government in the next financial year. While at the rural level, this will focus on providing the basic hygiene essentials like clean toilets and piped water supply, at the urban level this translates to re-engineering sanitation systems and suitable waste-management. Smart cities, on the other hand, will integrate infrastructure and sustainable sanitation with water metering, waste water treatment and recycling.
“The need of the hour is to further accelerate the adoption and promotion of state-of-the-art water management practices and technologies across various sectors. To make this happen, international events like ISH India shall play a catalytic role in taking forward this National mission,” said Dr Prem C Jain, Chairman, Indian Green Building Council.
Focusing on these fundamental segments, leading technology players are showcasing solutions suited for the Indian market at ISH India powered by IPA.
Architects, design professionals, city planners, and smart city decision makers can explore and experience these solutions live at the ongoing fair until 25th February 2017.
