Arul Industries

Our workshop is situated in Vellalankulam, specifically at No. 3/171 on Tenkasi Road. It’s in a spot called Ideal Nagar. Being out here means we have a bit more space than the shops in the middle of town, but it’s still quite a busy operation. We mostly focus on manufacturing. The machines are usually running from early morning until the sun goes down. It’s quite loud inside the shed, so we do a lot of shouting to hear each other. We’ve got a small team of local guys who know how to handle the equipment. Tenkasi Road sees a lot of trucks and buses passing by heading towards the mountains. We are just off the main stretch. The building is a basic industrial structure with a tin roof. It gets really hot in the middle of the day, so we usually take a long break then. We aren't a big corporation with fancy offices. We just have a small desk in the corner for the paperwork and some chairs for visitors. Most of our work comes from word of mouth around the local area. We just keep our heads down and finish the batches as they come in. It’s a quiet life in Vellalankulam, apart from the machine noise. We’ve been at this for a while and we plan to stay here for much longer. We just take one order at a time and do the work.
