Smartech is proud to share with you that we are supporting Indian village communities. With counterweights forming a key element of Smartech’s specially engineered door and wall solutions, we insist on the highest quality components. Our supplier’s uncompromising manufacturing processes meet our stringent requirements of premium quality and durability. 

Working with our dedicated supplier of cast counterweights for over three years now, Smartech is delighted to be creating jobs for village communities in Mumbai and surrounding areas. Based in Mumbai, our supplier comprises two units that manufacture for Smartech. The process of creating our custom counterweights encompasses a casting foundry and finishing factory that provide employment to over 30 skilled workers. 

The casting foundry is based in Raoki village, which is 30km from Rajkot city in Gujarat. This unit employs 20 people. 15 of which are local Raoki villagers, while the remaining 5 are part of the greater community area. The foundry casts our proprietary counterweights using moulds to precisely create parts that then undergo quality testing. 

Once Smartech’s cast counterweights are approved, they are transported to the next unit for completion. The finishing factory is located in Palghar in the State of Maharashtra, about 180kms from Mumbai. Here, finishing and packaging are undertaken to finalise the counterweights’ production. This unit provides jobs for 11 employees. 7 men and 4 women from nearby villages of Kholgaon and Umroli perform key roles of cleaning, finishing, packing, and loading Smartech’s counterweights.
 
Fostering positive and productive working relationships is important to us at Smartech. We are pleased to support village communities in India through our fruitful manufacturing partnership and are proud to provide jobs for the communities that help our business grow from strength to strength.
