Green Bricks Industries

Over at Plot 322 in Sector-11, Pratap Nagar, things stay pretty consistent. Sanganer is a busy area, but our little corner is mostly about the bricks. We call it Green Bricks, though the color is what you’d expect from any yard. The process is a bit long. You have to prep the materials, mold them, and then wait for the sun to do its job. We spend a lot of time walking around the plot checking on the different rows. Sector-11 has a lot of construction going on, so we see a lot of the same faces coming back. It’s nice to know the people who are using what we make. The dust gets into everything, even the lunch boxes if we aren’t careful. We have a small shade area where we keep our water. In the summer heat of Sanganer, you have to drink a lot of water just to keep going. We don’t have fancy computers or a big showroom. If you want to see the bricks, you just come to the plot and look at the stacks. It’s all right there in the open. Sometimes the machines break down and we have to spend half a day fixing them with whatever tools we have. That’s just part of the life of a brick maker. It’s not always easy, but it’s what we know how to do.
