Green Mechanics is looking for the opportunity to propagate its products in the area uncovered. Natural Plates In Olden days, Banana leaves were used to serve food in India. They were later replaced by reusable Steel Plates, but they caused Health Hazards for want of Hygiene. Hence in Modern days, these Plates are replaced by disposable Plastic and Thermocol Plates. But as these are non bio degradable, cause Pollution Hazards. Areca Leaf Plates are effective replacement for these modern disposable Plates. Areca nut is a popular palm variety of horticultural crop in Southern and North East India. Areca nut is used for its medicinal value as digestive and used at after meal. Areca nut fruits have large sheaths measuring 30 by 15 inches which are hard but slightly flexible. These are approximately 5mm thick and can be used as Plates if modified suitable. The sheaths fall off the fruit naturally, once the fruit grows. These are used to make Plates. Areca Leaf Plates are chemical free disposable product, which is fully bio degradable in a short span of time. No chemicals, synthetic material or strengthening material are used in the manufacturing process, so no artficial smell. Each product is made of single sheath, no joining of leaves involved. The material does not react with the food nor it adds any additional taste to the food served. Areca Plates are sturdy, leak proof, non toxic, light weight and can withstand hot and cold temperatures. They are cost effective and can be customised in shapes like round, oval, rectangle etc. Areca leaf Plates an economical replacement for Paper and Plastic disposable Plates and apt for Hotels, Fast Food Joints, Coffee Shops, Food chain, Restaurants, Buffet lunches, Picnics, Boat Parties, Pool Parties, Birthday Parties, Wedding Parties, Office Parties, Hospital Canteens, Factory Canteens, Office Canteens, Homes, Clubs, Hostels, Mass Events, Corporate and Political meetings, Catering Companies, Event Organisers etc. Because of wide spread areca nut cultivation, large quantity of Areca Plates production is reached.
