New Sai Industries

The Nashik-Pune Highway is always loud. You hear the big trucks rolling by all night and day. New Sai Industries is right on that stretch. We make things here. It involves a lot of metal and machines that make a lot of noise. Sometimes you have to shout to be heard over the grinding. We wear old clothes because they’re going to get grease on them anyway. There’s no point in dressing up for this kind of work. We’ve got a big gate that stays open during the day. The sun hits the metal sheets and makes the whole place hot by noon. We drink a lot of water. We aren’t a giant corporation. It’s just a group of us working the machines and making sure the orders are ready to go out on the trucks. Sometimes a driver pulls over just to ask for directions or some water. We help them out. The highway brings all sorts of people through. We’ve seen it change over the years, getting wider and busier. But inside our walls, it’s the same work. We measure, we cut, we weld. It’s honest work that leaves your hands feeling rough at the end of the day. We close up when the sun goes down and head home. Most days we are tired, but it is a good kind of tired. We just keep doing what we know how to do.
