1)            Cleaned and processed waste Sugar Cane Fiber is received in the form of a pulp board, where it is weighed and inspected prior to use in production.

2)            The pulp board is soaked in water prior to crushing to relax the fibers.

3)            Once suitably relaxed via soaking, it is crushed into slurry like substance.

4)            The crush materials are moved to a mixing agitator where wet strength additives are added to the mixture and the slurry is mixed until smooth and homogenous.

5)            The product slurry is pumped under pressure to the molding machines on the production line.

6)            Molding machines on the production line, using a vacuum injection system, force the slurry material into metal alloy molds under high heat and pressure.

7)            The finished mold is removed from the injection unit and passed to a drying and tempering unit.

8)            All pieces after drying are trimmed of any excess materials left from the molding process.

9)            Product is inspected for quality assurance by inspecting the weight, thickness, and visual look.  All products are also passed through metal detectors for added quality assurance and safety.

10)        All individual product pieces are passed through high intensity UV light tunnels for additional sterilization.

11)        After UV light treatment, products are packed, sorted and shipped to customers worldwide.
