Manufacturing process

  1. Procure bamboo and other required materials from local vendors.
  2. Cut bamboos into manageable sizes using carpenter saws and band saw machines.
  3. Clean bamboos to remove unwanted materials like leaves and nodal protrusions.
  4. Season the bamboos in a seasoning plant to reduce moisture content.
  5. Perform surface cleaning and smoothening using sandpaper or machines to remove exposed fibers.
  6. Cut the processed bamboo into specific sizes required for the tree guards.
  7. Assemble the cut parts into tree guards using a combination of nails and glue.
  8. Perform final edge smoothing on the assembled product prior to dispatch.

Market
