Step 1: Collection of Raw Materials
Our commitment to sustainability begins with the careful collection of naturally fallen Areca leaves from our farms. Handpicked and brought to our manufacturing unit, these leaves form the foundation of our eco-friendly products.

To guarantee hygiene, the collected Areca leaves undergo a thorough water pressure wash and scrub, followed by sun drying. This eco-friendly cleaning process ensures that our dinnerware is not only visually appealing but also meets the highest standards of cleanliness.
Step 3: Heat Pressure Molding
Transforming the naturally sturdy Areca Palm Leaves into our desired shapes involves precision and expertise. After the cleaning process, our skilled team utilizes heat pressure molding, creating plates and bowls that are both strong and versatile.
Step 4: Packing and Shipping
Your satisfaction is our priority, starting with the careful counting and stacking of Palm Leaf Plates and Bowls as per your requirements.
