Gujarat Foils Ltd.

Down here in Chhatral at the GIDC area, things move pretty fast. We occupy a good chunk of space from Plot 3436 to 3446 in Phase-IV. It’s a big site because making foil takes up a lot of room with the rollers and the storage. The trucks are constantly pulling in and out of the gates, which can be a bit of a headache with the traffic on the main road. Most of the day is spent managing the machines and making sure the rolls are coming out right. It’s loud in the factory part, so we stay in the small office area when we need to talk. We’ve been in Gandhinagar district for years. The guys on the floor know these machines inside out. It isn't a glamorous job. There’s a lot of heat and noise involved in pressing metal down that thin. We just try to keep the machines running smooth so we don't fall behind. Sometimes the weather makes the metal act up, but we’ve seen it all before. We don't have a big marketing team or anything like that. We just have our regular customers who expect their foil on time. It’s a straightforward business. We show up, run the plant, and go home. That’s the daily routine here at the works. We usually have tea together in the afternoon when things slow down for a minute. It is good to step away from the machines and stretch for a bit.
