Vv Rubber Industries is down at No. 1 Mettu Street in Ekkattuthangal. This area is known for having a lot of small industries and workshops. Our place is right there in the middle of it. The first thing you notice when you walk in is the smell of rubber. It’s a very strong smell, but after working here for a few days, you don't even notice it anymore. We make various rubber parts and items. There are machines running most of the day, so it gets pretty noisy. We have to shout sometimes to hear each other over the clatter. Mettu Street is narrow, so when deliveries come, it can be a bit of a squeeze for the trucks. We spend a lot of time checking the molds and making sure the rubber is setting right. It’s physical work and it can get very hot near the machines, especially in the summer. We mostly wear old clothes because they get stained easily. We aren't a big corporate factory, just a local industrial unit doing our bit. At the end of the shift, we shut down the machines and lock up the gate. It’s a long day, but it’s what we know. Ekkattuthangal has a lot of energy and we are just one part of the many businesses operating out of these streets every single day. We keep the production moving as best as we can.
