Peekey Steel Castings

You can find us over in Baithunoor, specifically in the Charanamkulam Nilam area of Calicut. Peekey Steel Castings is a place where we get our hands dirty every day. The work involves a lot of heat because of the casting process, so the fans are always running, though they don't do much in the Kerala humidity. We are located near Kulangarapeedika, and the locals usually just point people our way if they are looking for the steel works. It’s not a shiny new building; it’s a workshop that has seen a lot of use over the years. We spend our time working with molds and pouring metal. It’s a process that takes patience and a bit of luck sometimes. Things don't always come out perfect the first time, so we just do it again until it’s right. The crew here is small, mostly people from around the P.O. Pokkunnu area. We drink a lot of tea and talk about the weather while we wait for the metal to cool down. It’s a slow kind of business in some ways, but it keeps us busy from Monday to Saturday. We don't have a website that does much, we just rely on the work we do. If a casting is needed, we figure out how to make it happen in our little corner of Calicut. It is just basic, hard work that keeps the local industry moving.
