Bawana Plast Industries

Our workshop is out in the DSIIDC Industrial Area in Bawana, specifically at Pkt. F-5 in Sector-1. It is a long drive for some of us to get here, but this is where the real industry happens. We work with plastic molding. The machines we use are quite big and they put out a lot of heat, so we keep the large bay doors open to let the air move. It is a dusty place, but that is what you expect from a factory. We make various plastic items that people use in their houses every day. We don't do any marketing; the work usually comes to us through word of mouth from other people in the sector. Sometimes we have to work night shifts to finish a big batch of orders. We drink a lot of tea to keep ourselves going. The floor is stained with oil and there are scrap bits of plastic in bins all over the place. We try to recycle as much as we can. It is a simple life out here in Bawana. We don't have fancy signs or a nice paved driveway. It is mostly just gravel and hard concrete. We have a small corner for the ledger books and the phone. If the power goes out, which happens quite often, we just sit outside and wait for it to come back. It’s a community of hard workers.
