A bout Us
There is enough for everybody's need,
but not enough for anybody's greed.
–Mahatma Gandhi
O
ur pursuit of modernisation leaves behind a trail of waste
by taking what we can have and not what we really need.
This disturbs the ecological balance of mother nature
which has been preserved since millennia. Eco Vision is a initiative to
restore the balance and harmony with nature's elements; Creating an
Organisation Endeavouring for a Greener World.
Started in 1998 by Jitendra Pareek with a rented barren land, our
efforts and product brought us to be a Cover Story in a National
Business magazine Intelligent Investor (March 2002). In span of 12
years the organization has a wide platform from mining, crushing and
production range of Eco Friendly, Cost Effective, Sustainable,
Customized, Construction and Home Decor Solutions. In year 2003,
Avinash Pareek joined the Eco Vision team to strengthen the
organisation.
“Coming together is beginning,
Working together is progress and
Keeping together is Success.”

5. GFRC
Glassfibre Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) is one of the most versatile Lightweight Cladding Material for Industrial and Commercial
building materials available to architects and engineers. Buildings, Residential Complexes and Individual Villas as
decorative facade or total prefab enclosure.
Developed in the twentieth century, GFRC has been making a
significant contribution to the economics, technology, and aesthetics of Individual decorative elements of various types as required
modern construction worldwide for over 50 years. in a structure, like Sunscreens (Grills), Column Cladding,
GFRC is not a single material but a family of high-performance cement- Capitals, Brackets, Keystone, Window Sill and Door

Photocatalytic Active Principle
Photocatalysis is a natural phenomenon in which a substance known as a photocatalyst uses light to expedite the rate of a natural oxidation
process. Ever-increasing air pollution affecting urban areas has recently compelled researchers to take advantage of photocatalytic properties
to abate the noxious substances that are contaminating the environment.
All Eco Vision products have Photocatalytic treatment

aving has been around for almost 5,000 years.
One of the oldest paved roads was discovered
in the summer of 1994, in Giza, Egypt. In
Europe the earliest known use of precast building
stone dates about the year 1138 and was seen at
Carcassonne, France the cite’ which contains one of
the finest remains of medieval fortification. The
product gained wide spread usage in London in the
year 1900 and in America around 1920, the White
House being a superb example. The imposing
building facades adorning the streets of London,
Paris and other major cities in Europe and America,
which appear to be composed of natural stone are
actually precast building stone. Interlocking pavers
are manufactured by machinery in factories. They
consist of both fine and coarsely grained aggregate,
along with cement compounds. The ingredients are
put through pressure and vibration courses, which
produce a strong, durable concrete that can then be
molded into various shapes and designs.
