Josh Alloys

Our office and workspace are over in Bhandup at the Industrial Estate, specifically on the 4th floor of the Pannalal Silk Mill Compound. If you’ve ever driven down LBS Marg, you know the traffic can be a real headache, but this is where the industry is. Josh Alloys has been operating out of this compound for quite a while. It’s an old industrial site, so it has that rugged, worn-in feel. There’s always the sound of machinery humming from a different floor or the clatter of loading trucks downstairs. We’re up on the 4th floor, so we get a bit more breeze than the ground units, which is nice in the summer. The space is mostly filled with samples of different alloys and metal pieces. It isn't a place for meetings in suits; it’s a place where we look at materials and talk about specifications. We spend a lot of time on the phone or checking shipments. The walls are a bit stained and the floor has seen better days, but the work we do is solid. We don’t try to pretend to be a big corporate entity. We are a small team that understands metal and knows how to get it to the people who need it. Most of our neighbors in the Pannalal compound have been here as long as we have, so there’s a sense of familiarity when we pass each other in the hallways. It’s a long day, but it feels good to finish up and head home.
