Advanced Fluoro Tubes

Our place is in Unit 2 of the Arunoday Industrial Estate on Sativali Road. Gokhivare in Vasai East is full of these small industrial units, so it’s always loud with the sound of machinery and sirens. At Advanced Fluoro Tubes, we work with glass and gas and all the components that go into making lighting tubes. It is a bit of a delicate process, so the floor is usually covered in racks waiting to be filled. The machines we use are old but they still do the job if you treat them right. We spend a lot of time checking for cracks or leaks in the glass before anything gets packed up. It is very repetitive work, but you have to stay focused or things break. We have a small crew and most of us have been here for years. The break room is just a corner with a water cooler and a bench. We don't have a marketing team or a fancy website. Most of our orders come from people who have known us for a long time. The dust from the estate gets in everywhere, so we are constantly wiping down the benches. It’s just a factory job where we make things that help people see in the dark. We pack the boxes by hand and load them onto the trucks ourselves. It is a long day, but it feels good to see the finished product ready for use.
