Current site layout  

The current buildings on the Kunnapattu Road are a mixture of old and new buildings. The new factory, built without heat protection or noise insulation, was built opposite an area of traditional housing.   

The goods inwards and dispatch area (to the right-hand side of the picture) has been built in front of an open yard with the residential blocks behind. Chemicals (paint, oil, solvent etc) are stored 2 areas. Following the fire in the paint store in 2020, a small storage unit is being temporarily utilised along with the normal off-site solvent storage area. This small temporary paint storage unit is situated fronting the yard to one side of the dormitories. The second and larger storage area housing bulk supplies of solvents is located off site, in a large wooden shed the other side of the village to the factory. Workers transport the solvents through the village when requested by the Stores Keeper. Oil is stored in a large tank behind the dormitories.   

The water tanks and oil storage tanks are situated beyond the dormitories, near the oil tank. A small raw material storage area is adjacent to the goods inward area although most of the plastic raw materials are stored in a shed beside the on-site chemical storage area.

The yard that these buildings surround is well lit with flood lights for security. It is unpaved and is often muddy particularly during the monsoon season. The security lights are left on 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Both clean water drains, and foul water sewers run under the yard. During the monsoon rains the drainage system is frequently unable to cope, consequently the yard floods and drains overflow.  

The factory has security flood lights within the yard and at the front of the building beside the road.
