From the first step till the last, it depends on human labour. The leaves are collected by people, who send them to Adaaya through middlemen. Next, employees dry and wash the leaves, before making the plates, which are then checked by another team of people. Finally, the plates are packed and loaded for export by other employees. Behind it all is the management too, that works on keeping the company running smoothly. Thus, Adaaya stands for the development of society and of course, doing it sustainably!</p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

They’re exported from these ports and finally reach the shores of America, France and other countries that Adaaya caters to! Thus, Adaaya helps the world fight the scourge of plastic!</p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

That’s what we need to do to ensure your plates get to you in tip-top shape, and that’s exactly what we do! Adaaya’s employees work on packing the plates in a sustainable manner, while making sure they are tight and not susceptible to any damage while they traverse through the supply chain. They receive the plates that pass the quality check and efficiently pack them, before passing them onto the next of the supply chain.</span></span><br></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

Factories! And yes, Adaaya’s factory is where the magic happens! It depends on a large labour force, which is majorly comprised of women—in line with Adaaya’s principle of social development and women empowerment. Firstly, the employees wash the dried leaves so they become malleable. Following this, they operate the machines that punch out the plates from the leaves. They are efficient workers and keep Adaaya’s production numbers constantly high! After this process, the plates are cleaned and checked for quality by another set of employees. Thus, Adaaya uses its human resources to ensure it plays its part in fighting pollution efficiently!</p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

First things first, the leaves need to be dried. Adaaya outsources the labour for this process. The hired labour spreads the leaves out on a vast tract of land so each leaf is open to the Sun’s rays. The Sun dries the leaves naturally, and then the labourers bundle the leaves up again before they continue on their way through the supply chain. Thus, it’s a fully natural process that ensures the highest quality products for you!</span></span><br></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

Such an important part of human civilization, isn’t it? Once the leaves are collected, they have to be transported to the next part of the supply chain. Middlemen come into play here! The collected leaves are bundled up by the collectors, and are then sold to middlemen. The middlemen transport the leaves in bulk on their mini-lorries or lorries to manufacturers like Adaaya, and sell the bundles to the company. Without these middlemen, the leaves wouldn’t make their way to the manufacturers!</p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>

That’s how long it takes for an areca palm tree to begin shedding leaves! The farmer himself doesn’t collect them. Instead, he generously allows people from villages surrounding the plantation to collect the leaves to sell. The people go to the plantation early in the morning and collect as many as they can carry. Sometimes, the non-working members of the family go too, since the leaves are a quick and easy way to make a good sum of money. Thus areca palm plantations in a way are circular systems that sustain themselves and the surrounding localities. Manufacturers that use the leaves pay the local people for them, who in turn help the farmer by clearing their plantation of fallen leaves. This helps the farmer continue reaping good profits and taking care of the plantation for years to come. Thus the collection of the leaves is a symbiotic relationship between the farmer, the people around them, and Adaaya!</span></span><br></p></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
