Social care and Concern
- Green Initiatives:
- The formulations blocks of Torrent Pharma’s Dahej facility have been designed based on a detailed sun path analysis that reduces their exposure to sun thereby reducing the heat load for air conditioning. Besides, 33% of the total land area of the plant has been allocated for green cover.
- All manufacturing and research facilities of Torrent Pharma are zero discharge sites. All treated waste water and manure made out of the site's bio-degradable waste are used in the green areas within the site.

It comprises: Swadhar (the medical centre), Jarul (a 48 apartment residential colony) and a Bio Gas plant for using the waste of the surroundings and consequently support the gas and electricity requirement of Swadhar and Jarul.
