People are addicted to the usage of plastics. However, many measures have been taken to eradicate the use of plastic properly. Areca(Palm) leaf plates are one of those measures. These kinds of plates are made from the fallen leaves of the areca nut tree.
In India, KKN Exports has taken the initiative to save mother nature by producing 100% organic and natural plates. The company collects the raw materials from Shimoga and some parts of the Chikamangalore districts in Karnataka where the major plantation of Areca(Palm) is present in India. The areca leaf plates are the vision of a better tomorrow. These products are disposable, microwave and freezer safe, are lightweight but are strong, have both hot and cold resistance, are suitable for hard and liquid food, are very hygienic and odorless, and it also doesn’t change the taste of the food on the plate. It has no plastic or wax lining. Since it’s 100% biodegradable it can be used as both cow fodder and to make compost.
Also, these plates are available in many sizes and shapes like round, rectangle, square, and special shapes.
