Ra Foundry & Eng Works

We are over in Laxmiganj, right near the State Bank and not too far from Nadrai Gate. It gets pretty loud here at the foundry because of all the engineering work going on. The heat from the furnace is something else, especially during the summer months when the air just sits still. We’ve been at this location for a good bit of time. Most people know the State Bank building, so that makes it easier to explain where we are to people coming for the first time. The street outside stays crowded with cycles and people heading toward the gate. We don't have a big corporate setup. It is mostly just the sound of metal and the guys working on different parts. We keep the shop floor as organized as we can, but a foundry is never going to be a clean place. There is always soot and metal dust on everything. We drink a lot of tea to keep going through the shifts. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to wait it out, which is just how it goes here. We handle the engineering tasks one by one as they come in. No one here wears a suit. We are usually covered in grease or dirt by noon. It's honest work and it keeps the lights on. We like being in Laxmiganj because everything we need is right within walking distance for the staff.
