Rhino Bamboo Industry

We operate out of R.G. Baruah Road, as a unit of the Ambika Service Station company. It is a bit of a weird setup because people see the service station name and expect us to be fixing cars, but we are actually all about bamboo. Our yard is usually piled high with raw bamboo poles that we are processing. The smell is quite distinct, sort of earthy and woody, which is much better than exhaust fumes. Being on R.G. Baruah Road means it is always noisy because of the traffic, but you get used to it after a week or two. We have a small building where we do the administrative stuff, but most of the real work happens outside or in the sheds. When the monsoon season hits, everything gets a lot more complicated because we have to keep the bamboo dry. We spend a lot of time moving heavy stacks around under the tarps. Our crew is mostly local guys who have been working with wood and bamboo their whole lives. They don't need much instruction because they know the material better than anyone. We don't have any fancy brochures or a marketing team. People usually find us because they saw our sign or someone told them we were here. It is honest work and it keeps us busy throughout the year. We are just a local industry doing our thing in Guwahati, day by day. It isn't always easy, but we make it work.
