Tirupur Karpa Knitting Pvt. Ltd.

We are based in the Rajarajeswari Ginning Factory Compound, which is out on Dharapuram Road here in Tiruppur. It is an old industrial area, and you can tell by the way the buildings look. Being a knitting company, there is always the sound of some machine or another running in the background. It becomes like white noise after you’ve been here for a few hours. Tirupur Karpa Knitting Pvt. Ltd. is basically just a group of people working hard in a big open space. The compound is pretty large, so there is always some truck coming in or leaving. We spend our days watching the yarn come in and the finished pieces go out. It gets quite hot in the afternoons, especially with the metal roofs around the factory area. We usually have the fans going full blast, but even then, you feel the heat. We don't really do much in the way of fancy meetings. Most of our talking happens on the factory floor while we are looking at the machines. Dharapuram Road is a major route, so we get a lot of dust from the passing traffic. We just keep the doors shut as much as we can. It’s honest work, and we’ve been at it for quite some time now. Every day is mostly the same, just keeping the production moving and making sure nothing breaks down. We focus on the daily tasks and hope the machines behave.
