ITT Corporation has opened a technology centre in Gujarat, India, the company's first major facility to be located in that country.

ITT says that the technology centre will develop "deep engineering competencies" in core water and other fluid transport technology areas. It will also focus on localizing ITT's portfolio of products to meet the region's needs and help the company's global new product development teams achieve their growth goals in emerging markets.

"The new India Technology Center is a centerpiece of ITT's emerging markets strategy," said Brenda Reichelderfer, chief technology officer of ITT. "In India , we can take advantage of a large pool of experienced engineers to create a product design resource focused on meeting the needs of local customers, while adding unique skills and depth to ITT's global engineering capability."
