2026 so far — a lot of kilometres, factories, experiments and conversations.
Started the year with a trip to Tirupati to seek blessings from the divine.
Since then, the camera roll has slowly changed to airports, highways, customer factories, steel wire, machines, trials, changes at our own plant and a slightly unreasonable number of photos of industrial processes.
A lot has been changing at ATMA METCHEM PVT. LTD. too.
1. New ideas being tested.
2. Processes being improved.
3. Machines being modified.
4. More time spent inside our customers’ factories understanding how they actually manufacture wire.
Probably my favourite part has been the people.
Many trips that start as “going to meet a customer” now feel more like visiting friends, talking about machines and business over chai, and somehow coming back with another idea to try at the factory.
Still building. Still experimenting. Still travelling.
And thankfully, enjoying every bit of it.
