The Indian Home Pipe Co. Ltd.

This branch is located on Singhagad Road in Pune. It’s a big site because pipes take up a lot of room. We’ve been part of the landscape here for a long time. People driving toward the hills usually pass us by without thinking much about it. The work here is heavy. We make pipes for all sorts of projects. You’ll see the concrete and the steel piles if you look over the fence. It’s not a quiet place. There is always the sound of cranes or trucks backing up. We have a lot of workers who have been with us for decades. They know the rhythm of the place. We don't do much in terms of flashy advertising. The pipes speak for themselves when they are laid in the ground. It’s a bit dusty, especially in the summer months. The monsoon makes the yard muddy, but the work doesn't stop for weather. We have an office on-site where the paperwork gets handled, but the real action is out in the yard. We follow the schedules and try to get the loads out on time every single day. Singhagad Road has gotten much busier lately, so getting the trailers out can take a while with all the traffic. We are just a bunch of people making sure the local infrastructure has what it needs. It’s basic, solid work that keeps us busy from Monday to Saturday. It's a routine we have perfected over many years of doing this.
