'''Grunty Industries''' is the sixth world of ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. It consists of a giant pollution-spewing factory and the area around it. Given its name, it's possible that [[Gruntilda]] is its CEO. The entrance to the world is in the [[Quagmire]], and is easily visible and accessible.

'''Grunty Industries''' is the sixth world of ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. This is [[Gruntilda]]'s giant underwear factory and the area around it. The entrance to the world is in the [[Quagmire]], and is easily visible and accessible.


One of Grunty Industries' signature frustrations is that, upon first entering the world, it appears impossible to enter the factory proper: the main entrance is closed, and all other entrances are out of reach. The key is the [[Train Switch]] concealed behind the access shed on the right side, which opens the [[Train Station]] inside Floor 1. Once the player takes [[Chuffy]] in from another world, they then have full access to the factory, though they must still press a pair of split-up switches to open the main entrance for later convenience.

In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]'', a "very young" (as described by the [[Jinjo Oracle]]) Grunty Industries appears as a sub-area of Freezing Furnace. [[Klungo]] is fought in the place, and Banjo can become [[Tank Banjo|a tank]] with the [[Mumbo Totem]] he drops alongside the Jiggy.

On top of the factory entrance, use the flight pads (alternatively shoot a Clockwork Kazooie egg while airborne), Kazooie's Glide move, jump from the top of the building (best you have the FALLBACK cheat before trying this), or fire a Clockwork Kazooie egg from in front of the entrance (this is very tricky to get just right).

{{Quote|No one knows exactly what Grunty's monstrous factory produces-it seem to be a power station, waste disposal plant, and storage depot all rolled into one. Finding a way in will be your first problem, but it certainly won't be your last. Inside its grim walls lurk six floors of wrench-wielding workers, leaky toxic drums, and neglected machinery. All of this is watched over by an unseen, but often heard, eagle-eyed foreman with a network of cameras and a public address system. And speaking of wasted disposal, you'll also find everyone's favorite sanitary hero in need of some particulary unpleasant assistance...|''Banjo-Tooie'', instruction booklet, page 29}}
{{Quote|As public interest in witchcraft wanes, Gruntilda has shifted to a new business strategy: underwear manufacturing. Her aging plant in the Quagmire is filled with so much unsafe machinery and toxic waste, you may want to file a grievance.|''Banjo-Tooie'' Player's Guide, page 76}}
{{Quote|Grunty's filthy factory is weak on saniation and safery but strong on security and servitude. You can access the multilevel interior by taking Chuffy from a previously opened station. Once you're inside, open the front door using Banjo and Kazooie Pads. You can also activate outdoor Flying Pads from inside the building.|''Nintendo Power'' vol. 140, page 42}}
