Talsaniya Engineering

Out here in G.I.D.C. Vatva, things are always moving and it never really stays quiet. We are tucked away at A-15 in the Shakriba Industrial Estate. It’s in Phase-4, right behind the Indo German Tool Room. If you’ve ever been to this part of Vatva, you know it’s all industry and warehouses. The roads can be a bit rough, especially when the big trucks are coming through after the rain. Talsaniya Engineering is just one of many shops in this long row. It gets pretty loud with all the machinery running in the neighboring units. Our space isn't huge, but it's enough for what we do. There’s usually a bit of dust in the air and the smell of grease and metal that you just get used to. We don’t have a fancy lobby or a receptionist at the front. You just walk in and find whoever is available at the time. We spend most of our day on the shop floor or at the small desk in the corner. The sun hits the front of the unit in the late afternoon, making it pretty hot, so we keep the big industrial fans running. It’s a hardworking area. People are always loading or unloading something from the trucks parked in the lane. We’ve been at this address for a while and we know the guys in the units next door. Sometimes we borrow a tool or help each other out with something heavy. It’s just the way it goes in an industrial estate like Shakriba.
