Sharp Gears

You can find us at Plot No.51-1-A in the Sidco Industrial Estate at Kurichi. It’s right in the middle of all the other factories and workshops. We mostly spend our time making gears of all sizes. The shop is always noisy because the machines are usually running from morning until late afternoon. There is a smell of machine oil in the air and the floor usually has some metal shavings on it. It’s a real working shop. We have a small group of workers who know these machines inside and out. Some of the equipment we use is quite old, but it’s reliable and does the job perfectly. We don't have a fancy front office or a showroom. If you want to talk to us, you just come onto the shop floor. We spend our time measuring and cutting metal to get the gears just right. It’s precision work but it’s done in a very dusty and oily environment. We’ve been in Kurichi for many years and have seen a lot of other businesses come and go. We just keep doing what we know how to do. There’s no corporate fluff here, just people in grease-stained clothes working hard. Sometimes we have to work through the weekend to get a big order out, but that’s just how the gear business is. It’s a simple, honest way to make a living and it keeps us occupied every day.
