In our previous blog, we discussed the 3D’s of Electroplating – Dirty, Dangerous, and Difficult – from an external perspective, highlighting how these challenges impact the industry as a whole. At Sargam, however, we view these challenges from an internal standpoint. We don’t just acknowledge them; we actively tackle them. Our commitment goes beyond delivering quality products – we prioritize the well-being of our team and the protection of the environment, making these factors intrinsic to our operations.
Let’s explore how we combat these 3D’s, making electroplating safer, smarter, and more sustainable.
How Sargam Industries Tackles These Challenges

- Regular Safety Audits: Routine inspections ensure that hazards & potential risks are identified and addressed proactively.
- Fume Extraction Scrubber Systems: Advanced ventilation systems eliminate harmful fumes, ensuring clean air in the workplace.
- Streamlined Processes: A strong focus on cleanliness and order ensures that spills and messes are quickly managed, keeping the work environment pristine.
- Lean Material Flow: We avoid zigzag flow to enhance efficiency and reduce unnecessary handling.
Chemical and Electrical Safety
- Automated Processes: Sargam has invested in automation (PLC) to ensure zero employee contact with hazardous chemicals, enhancing both safety and efficiency.
- Protective Measures: Insulated acid-proof flooring and anti-static mats reduce the risk of electrical shocks, while proper PPE ensures employees are protected from exposure.
- ISO 14000 Compliance: Our adherence to environmental and safety management systems ensures we maintain the highest safety standards.
Ergonomic and Process Improvements
- Task Automation/Semi-Automation: Wherever possible, repetitive and physically demanding tasks, such as handling large or high-volume components, are automated, reducing employee fatigue and increasing efficiency.
- Well-Maintained Equipment: Regular maintenance schedules prevent accidents and ensure smooth operations.
