The Ganga Varnishes And Chemical Industries Ltd.

Our place is out in the Chemical Industrial Estate at Kirumambappakkam. The address is 108/9E, and it's surrounded by other factories and warehouses. The Ganga Varnishes And Chemical Industries Ltd. has been operating from here for a long time. You can usually smell the chemicals and the varnish as soon as you turn into the lane. It’s a bit of an industrial smell, but you get used to it after a few days. We have big drums and mixing tanks all over the floor. It’s not the kind of place where you wear nice clothes because something always splashes or leaks. The floor is stained with different colors from years of work. We have a small crew and we all know the routine of mixing and packing. The heat in the estate can be tough during the summer months, especially with the machines running. We spend a lot of time checking labels and making sure the lids are on tight. It’s a lot of physical work, moving heavy containers from one side to the other. There isn't much to see around here besides other industrial buildings and the occasional truck coming in to pick up a load. We just focus on getting the batches done and keeping the equipment running. It’s a steady kind of life, even if it is a bit messy and loud.
