H. P. Cork Asbestos Industries

You can find us at No. 464 in the Baba Faridpuri Industrial Area. It’s a pretty standard industrial zone where everyone is busy with their own manufacturing or processing. We are H. P. Cork Asbestos Industries, and we’ve been operating out of this spot for a good while. The easiest way to find us is to look for the Gurudwara right across from our entrance. It’s a peaceful landmark in an otherwise loud and busy part of the city. We work with cork and asbestos materials, which means there is a lot of cutting, measuring, and industrial noise throughout the shift. The dust is just part of the job, and we all have our roles in the production line. The area around Baba Faridpuri is always full of tempos and lorries moving goods, so you have to be careful when you’re stepping out. We don’t really do much in the way of decoration or fancy signs; we just have the name on the door and the work going on inside. Usually, we take our breaks when the midday heat is at its worst, often sitting where there's a bit of shade near the gate. It is hard work but it’s what we know how to do. Being opposite the Gurudwara gives us a sense of place in this crowded industrial layout. We just keep making the products and filling the orders as they come in day after day without too much fuss.
