Unicon Laboratories

Unicon Laboratories has been sitting here on R. K. Mutt Road in Mylapore for quite some time. If you know the area, you know it can get pretty busy outside. Inside the lab, it’s a bit different. We try to keep things quiet so we can focus. We spend most of our hours looking at samples and writing down numbers. It’s not the kind of job that changes much from day to day. We show up at No. 212, get our coats on, and start the equipment. Mylapore is a good place to be based, even if parking is a nightmare sometimes. The building is old, but it works for what we need. We aren't trying to be the biggest lab out there, just the one that gets the testing done right. Sometimes the machines act up and we have to spend the afternoon fixing them instead of doing our regular work. That’s just part of it. We have a small break room where we drink tea and talk about regular stuff, not always work. It’s a decent living. We’ve seen the neighborhood change a lot over the years, but our spot stays mostly the same. We don’t do much advertising because we’re usually busy enough as it is. Just local people doing local work. We have a few regulars who have been coming to us for their analysis for a decade, and we appreciate that they still trust us.
