Light City Ceramic Pvt. Ltd.

If you head out toward Rangpar on the Jetpar Road, you'll find our ceramic plant. It’s not a very complicated setup, just a bunch of sheds and the main firing area. We’ve been operating here for some time now. The road can be a bit rough during the monsoon, but we manage to keep the deliveries going. Ceramics is a tough business because there are so many things that can go wrong in the oven. You have to watch the temperature like a hawk. Our workers are mostly from the nearby farms and they know the value of a hard day's work. We don't have a marketing department or anyone to write fancy speeches. We just show up, start the machines, and see what the day brings. The office is just a small room at the front with a few desks and a computer that sometimes works. We sell mostly to local contractors and some bigger distributors who come by with their own lorries. It gets pretty loud inside when all the mixers are going at once. We usually have tea together in the afternoon to catch our breath. It’s a bit of a trek from the main town, so we try to stock up on everything we need once a week. There’s a lot of grit and grime involved in making tiles, but it’s what we know how to do. We just keep our heads down and do the work that’s in front of us.
