Areca leaf is a perfect substitute for plastics/polymer and paper derived products which has been a global concern. The disposable (use and throw) Areca/Palm leaf plates and bowls are manufactured from 100 percent biodegradable and compostable areca tree leaves. These bio-degradable plates are a nature-friendly alternative to the traditional disposable plates, as they tend to be organic and renewable. As illustrated in the figure below, the naturally shed areca tree leaves are collected from the floor of the forest and no trees are cut down to manufacture these plates.
The sheath of areca leaves is cleaned properly, soaked in water for fifteen minutes tentatively, and sun-dried to prevent mold / fungus due to humidity. And they are compressed and molded to different shapes using machines and packed as per customer requirements. These plates are environment friendly, bio-degradable, and compostable.
