Jaikrishna Rubber Manufacturing Company

Jaikrishna Rubber Manufacturing Company is tucked away in the Mukadam Compound on Film City Road in Malad East. Our place is near Patia Naroda Road, right behind the Bavaji Auto shop. It’s a bit of a trek to get back here, but it’s where all the work happens. The compound is always full of activity with different businesses running side by side. We make rubber products, so the smell of raw rubber is something we are very used to, though visitors usually notice it right away. The building isn't anything special to look at. It's a functional factory space with high ceilings and heavy machinery. Outside, the Film City Road is always jammed with cars and buses, especially with all the studios nearby. Sometimes we see the sets being moved around. Behind us, Bavaji Auto is always busy with repairs, so there is a constant sound of engines and tools. We spend our days managing the machines and checking the quality of the rubber. It is hot work, especially during the summer months in Malad. We have a small area where we sit down to eat our lunch and talk about the day. It is a simple setup without any corporate layers. We just focus on the manufacturing and making sure the orders are ready on time in our corner of the compound. That is how we have always done things here.
