Gayatri Chemical Industries

Gayatri Chemical Industries takes up a few plots, 210 through 212, over in Phase 2 of the GIDC. We’re right across the road from the Dipak Oil Mill. It’s a pretty large space because we need room for the mixing tanks and the storage drums. We’ve been here since they first laid the roads in this part of the industrial estate. It’s mostly industrial chemicals we deal with every day. The work is mostly about mixing things and checking the batches to make sure they are okay. We have a small lab area, but it's nothing like what you see in movies or on TV. It’s just some flasks, a scale, and a lot of notebooks. The floors are stained from years of hard work. We wear heavy boots and gloves all day because it can get messy. There’s a constant hum from the pumps running in the background. I usually sit in the small booth near the front entrance to check the delivery notes. We aren't a huge corporation, just a family-run outfit that grew over the years. Most of our workers live in the nearby villages and walk here. It’s a steady job and we try to keep things running smooth without much fuss or drama. If a valve leaks, we just fix it ourselves. We focus on getting the orders right and making sure the drums are sealed properly before they go out on the trucks. Plot No. 210 is our main spot for everything.
