Aflon Engineering Corporation

Getting to City Mills Compound on Kankaria Road can be a bit of a headache during rush hour in Ahmedabad. Our workshop at Aflon Engineering Corporation is tucked away in there. It is an old building but it serves its purpose for the engineering stuff we do every day. There is always the sound of metal hitting metal or someone shouting over a grinder. We have a small office area where the fan wobbles a bit, but it keeps us cool enough to handle the orders. Most of our guys have been living around this part of Ahmedabad forever. We mostly deal with parts and repairs that keep other people's machines running. The tea stall right outside the compound gate makes the best ginger tea, which helps when we have to stay late to finish a batch. It is not a very quiet place to work. There are stacks of raw materials near the entrance that we have to step over sometimes. We use 380022 for the post, but most people just find us by looking for the big rusted gate. It is a bit dusty inside because of the location, but the work is solid. We don’t really do much fancy stuff here, just straightforward engineering tasks. The floor is concrete and stained with oil from over the years. It feels like a real place where things are actually made and repaired without any big corporate fuss.
