Ruby Polymers

Ruby Polymers is out at E-1 in Gidc Metoda. If you know the Metoda area, you know it’s a lot of driving and a lot of industrial sheds. Our shed is pretty much like the others, with high ceilings and a big metal door that we leave open for the breeze. We work with plastics and polymers, so there’s usually a faint smell of resin in the air. The floor is covered in tiny plastic pellets that seem to get everywhere, no matter how much we sweep up. We have a small team of guys who operate the machines. They’ve been with us for a while, so they know the quirks of the old equipment. It’s a bit far from the main city, so we usually bring our own lunch and eat together in the small room we call an office. The walls are painted a dull white and there are stacks of order forms everywhere. We don't have a big corporate structure or anything. If there’s a problem, we just talk it out and fix it right there on the floor. It’s honest work and it keeps us busy from morning until evening. We don't really do much advertising. Most people find us through word of mouth or because they saw our address on a delivery truck. Metoda is a tough place to work when the heat is high, but we just keep the machines running and get through it.
