Sandvik Asia Ltd- Sandvik Coromant

Our place is located on the Mumbai-Pune Road over in Dapodi. Being on such a major road means there is a constant stream of cars and trucks passing by the front. Sandvik Asia Ltd- Sandvik Coromant is where we spend our working hours, dealing with industrial tools and materials. It’s a large site, much bigger than some of the small shops nearby, but it still feels like a workplace where people know each other. The facility has been around for quite some time, so there’s a lot of history in these walls. We spend a lot of time looking at metal pieces and making sure they meet the right standards. It can be repetitive work, but it needs to be done right. The cafeteria is where most of us catch up during the lunch break. You can hear the hum of the machines from the road if it’s a quiet night. The weather in Dapodi can be quite harsh, either very dusty or very wet, so we are always adjusting. We don't spend much time on fancy words or presentations. We just focus on the orders that come in and getting them out the door. It’s a busy environment with a lot of moving parts, literally. Everyone just gets on with their tasks.
