Universal Coating Co

We have been located at 5, Shanmugam Street in Royapettah for quite some time now. Universal Coating Co is basically where we spend most of our waking hours. It’s not a polished place with a lobby or fancy chairs. It is a workspace filled with tools, tanks, and the heavy smell of chemicals and metal. People come by when they have something that needs a proper coating, and we just handle it. Whether it is a small batch of parts or a single large item, we get it done. The shop floor is usually a bit of a mess, but that is just how we work. Being in Royapettah means there is always a lot of noise and traffic outside, but we just focus on the job at hand. We don’t have a mission statement or a marketing team. It is just a few of us making sure the coatings are applied correctly so things do not rust or wear out. We’ve seen many businesses come and go on Shanmugam Street, but we are still here doing the same thing every day. It’s practical work. You bring us the items, we prep them, and then we apply the finish. Sometimes we get backed up and it takes a little longer, but we always finish the task. We don’t spend much time on the computer or phones unless we really have to. Most of our day is hands-on. That’s just how it is here.
