Malwa Foundry & Steel Works

Our workshop is over at Plot No.Block-D-1-2-10 in the Industrial Estate area of Pologround. If you’re looking for us, we are right near the Shukla Petrol Pump, which is the main landmark where most people stop to ask for directions when they get lost. Running a foundry like Malwa Foundry & Steel Works isn't exactly clean or comfortable work. There’s a lot of heat from the furnaces and the smell of hot metal is always hanging around the place. We spend our days mostly working with the sand molds and the pouring ladles. It’s very physical and can get pretty exhausting, especially when the weather is humid and the air doesn't move. The industrial estate is a busy place with plenty of noise from the other manufacturing units nearby. We don’t have a fancy front office or a place for guests to sit. Just the large workspace where the actual steel work happens. Most of the guys have been working here for years and we just get on with the jobs as they come in. Sometimes the old equipment acts up and we have to spend half the morning fixing a machine instead of pouring metal. That’s just part of the daily grind. It’s a bit of a maze back here in the Pologround section, but we’ve got our routine down. We focus on the orders we have on the books and try to stay out of the way of the heavy trucks constantly moving through the estate roads. It’s a straightforward, rough business with no frills.
