Partap Machine Tools

Partap Machine Tools is located at 72, Virwani Industrial Estate in Goregaon East. We are quite close to the Western Express Highway and right across the way from the Blue Dart building. Being in an industrial estate means it is never quiet. There is always the sound of machines running, trucks loading, and people shouting to be heard over the noise. Our shop is full of heavy equipment and tools. It smells like metal and oil, which is pretty much the smell of our daily lives. We spend most of our time fixing tools or making parts for other businesses. My clothes usually have a few grease stains by the end of the day. It’s hard work and it’s often very hot in the workshop, especially in the summer months. We don't have a fancy reception area. If someone wants to talk to us, they usually just walk right into the back where we are working. We’ve been here for a long time and we know most of the other shop owners in the estate. We have tea together in the afternoons when things slow down a bit. We don't use a lot of big words or try to act like we are more than we are. We are just a group of people who know how to handle machines and keep them running.
