Kisan Filters Pvt. Ltd.

Kisan Filters Pvt. Ltd. is based out of Plot No. 323-a-1 in the Gidc Ind. Estate. It is a standard industrial plot, nothing too special to look at from the outside. We’ve got some machinery for making filters and a bit of space for storage. The estate is always humming with noise from the other units, so you never really get a moment of true silence here. We started small and just stayed at this location because it works for us. The floor is usually covered in some kind of grit or shavings, no matter how often we sweep it. That’s just the nature of manufacturing filters, I guess. We have a few guys who have been with us for years. They know the machines better than I do. We drink a lot of chai during the breaks and talk about whatever is happening in the news. It’s a regular job. We don’t do much advertising; people usually find us through word of mouth or by just driving through the estate. The address is easy enough to find if you follow the plot numbers in order, though some of the signs are faded. We keep our head down and get the work done. It’s not a corporate life, it’s just factory work. Sometimes the monsoon makes the roof leak a little, but we put a bucket under it and keep going.
