Manufacturing Excellence
Manufacturing areca leaf plates involves several steps. Here's a detailed step-by-step process:
- Procurement of Areca Palm Leaves: Areca palm leaves are primarily sourced from regions where areca palm trees are abundant and In India, Karnataka has the largest number of Areca palm tree cultivation. Farmers collect the naturally fallen sheaths and separate them from the leaf. After the separation, the farmers send the sheaths to the manufacturer for further process.
- Cleaning with Fresh water, Sorting and Soaking: The collected leaves are thoroughly cleaned in Fresh Water by Pressure washer/ by hand to remove any dirt, dust, or impurities. They are then sorted based on size, thickness, and quality .The sorted leaves are soaked in water for a certain period of time, typically a few hours. This process helps in making the leaves pliable and easier to shape without causing breakage.
- Formation Of Plates by Heat Press: After soaking, the leaves are placed in a hydraulic press or mold designed specifically for shaping them into Different Sizes according to your needs. The hydraulic press applies pressure to mold the leaves into the desired shape and size.
- Edge Trimming : The edges are trimmed to remove any uneven or excess portions, resulting in uniform edges and also undergo additional finishing processes to smoothen the surface and enhance their appearance.
- U.V Sterilization: The Formed plates undergo U.V sterilization process to ensure hygiene and safety , the plates are placed in a U.V sterilization chamber to eliminate any potential pathogens or contaminates present on the plates.
- Quality Control: Before packaging, the plates undergo thorough quality control checks to ensure that they meet the required standards in terms of size, shape, strength, and overall quality.
- Packaging: The finalized areca leaf plates are carefully packaged in sets or stacks, ready for distribution and sale. Packaging is usually done using eco-friendly materials to maintain the sustainability of the product.
- Recycling of Areca Waste: After pressing the plates areca leaves sheath waste will be left. The waste can be used into making food stock for cattle or composted , because of its chemical composition, the sheath is comparable with paddy straw and has some minerals in high values as copper, calcium and sulphur.
