Ishwar Casting

You can find us in the Kothariya area of Rajkot, specifically over at Amrut Udhyog. We are pretty close to the Atlas Industrial Area and Gulab Nagar, so there is always a lot of industrial activity nearby. The workshop stays pretty warm because of the work we do. There is always a layer of dust on the shelves and the floor, no matter how much we sweep. We deal with castings all day, so it’s heavy work that leaves your hands dirty. We’ve been in this part of Rajkot for a while and know most of the people running the shops around here. The sound of the machines is something you just get used to after a few days. We have a small area near the front where we keep the finished pieces before they go out. It’s not a polished environment; it’s a working foundry where things are being made. We usually have the radio playing in the background to help pass the time. During the monsoon, the roads around here get a bit muddy, but we keep things going regardless. It’s a practical life, working with metal and molds. Most of the guys here have been doing this since they were young. We don’t spend much time in an office; we prefer to be where the actual work is happening. It’s a lot of physical effort, but it’s honest work. We just keep our heads down and get the casting done.
