Chamak Paints Industries

We are located out on the Ahmedabad-Mehsana Highway, specifically in the Bileshwarpura area. It’s a bit of a drive from the main city, but it’s where all the industrial activity is happening. Being in Gandhinagar district means we have a fair amount of space for our operations which is lucky. We make paints here. The sun hits the building really hard in the afternoons, so it gets quite warm inside the warehouse. You can hear the big trucks passing by on the highway all day long. It's a constant hum that you eventually stop noticing. Our team is mostly local people from the nearby villages and Kalol. We’ve been at this for some time now. There are barrels and vats everywhere you look. Making paint involves a lot of mixing and checking colors over and over. We don’t have a fancy front office for meetings. It’s more of a working space where the floor is usually stained with different shades of blue or red. We keep the paperwork in a small room near the main entrance. It's a lot of work keeping up with the orders that come in. Sometimes the power goes out, and we have to wait for the backup generator to kick in so we can finish a batch. That’s just part of being out here in this location. We don’t put on any shows for anyone. We just focus on getting the paint batches right for the customers. It is a messy but steady job for all of us.
