ESSEN DEINKI

You can find us at 22, Industrial Area, Phase 2. It is a plain building that looks like every other one on the street, but it is where we do all our manufacturing. We make a lot of electrical components like switches and terminal blocks. The space is filled with the sound of assembly lines and people packing boxes. It gets quite hectic when we have a big order to get out by the evening. We don't have a big reception area or fancy decorations because we use every inch of space for production and storage. There are rows of shelves reaching up to the ceiling filled with small plastic and metal parts. Some days it feels like a bit of a maze in here. We have a small team of workers who have been doing this for a long time, so they can practically do the assembly with their eyes closed. We eat lunch together in a small corner and then get right back to the machines. It is simple, hard work. We deal with a lot of suppliers and distributors coming through the gate. The floor is concrete and the walls could probably use a fresh coat of paint, but it doesn't matter much as long as the work is getting finished. We just keep our heads down and make sure the components are put together correctly before they are shipped out to customers.
