Jajadiya Foundry & Engineeering Works

The foundry is located in the Second Phase of GIDC, right across from Varshraj Express and near Jay Chemical. If you’ve ever been to an industrial area, you know what it’s like. It’s hot, noisy, and there’s always something moving. We spend our days around machines and metal. It’s not the cleanest job, but it’s what we do. The floor is usually covered in some kind of dust or grease. We do engineering work that takes a lot of patience and some heavy lifting. Most of the guys here have been working these machines for a long time, so they know the sounds they make when something is slightly off. We don't have a fancy front office. It's mostly just a small room with a fan where we keep the logs. The area is full of trucks coming and going, especially being near the express company. Sometimes the power goes out and we have to wait around, which is just part of being in GIDC. We just get the jobs done as they come in. There’s no big talk about being the leaders or anything, we just focus on the casting and the metalwork. It’s tough work, but it keeps the lights on. If you come by, you’ll probably hear the hammers or the engines long before you see the door. It's a lot of sweat and hard work, but we've got a good group of people here who know the trade inside out. We just keep our heads down and work.
