Singhbhum Steels

The yard is located on the Tata-Kandra Main Road, right across from the Sachdeva Weigh Bridge in Bhatia Basti, Adityapur. If you are looking for Singhbhum Steels, you just look for the stacks of metal and the big gate. It’s a loud place. Between the trucks grinding their gears and the cranes moving heavy loads, you have to shout to be heard sometimes. We deal with steel every day. It’s heavy, dirty, and hard work, but it’s what we know. The office is just a small room at the front where we keep the ledgers and the weigh bills. Everything is covered in a thin layer of grit from the industrial area. We don't wear suits here; we wear heavy boots and clothes that we don't mind getting stained. People come to us when they need materials for building or manufacturing. We spend a lot of time checking the weights and making sure the loading is done safely. The weather really dictates our day. If it’s too hot, the metal burns your hands. If it rains, the ground turns to thick mud. We’ve been in Adityapur for a long time and have seen the factories around us change hands many times. We just stay steady doing our thing. It’s not a glamorous life, but steel is something people always need. We keep the gates open early and close them late. It’s just the way the steel business works.
