- Clean bamboos to remove unwanted materials like leaves and nodal protrusions.
- Season the bamboos in a seasoning plant to reduce moisture content.
- Perform surface cleaning and smoothening using sandpaper or machines to remove exposed fibers.
- Cut the processed bamboo into specific sizes required for the tree guards.
- Assemble the cut parts into tree guards using a combination of nails and glue.
- Perform final edge smoothing on the assembled product prior to dispatch.
