 1. Introduction

Disposal products have an urban as well as rural market. These products are
mostly used during social functions, religious gatherings, parties, marriage
ceremony, outings, in sweet shops, by caterers etc. The products have many
advantages and are hence preferred as compared to standard utensils and
crockery for serving eatables. They can easily be disposed off after use and
hence save a lot of labour as far as cleaning/drying of utensils are concerned.
These are easily transportable and easy to handle. These products are eco-
friendly and does not pollute the environment as it is bio-gradable when
exposed to the environment after used off.

2. Main objective to run thermocol disposable products manufacturing

machine

A. Market Potential

In our state people are religious and organize functions throughout the year all
such occasions call for social gathering and celebrations with meals, snacks
sweets being served. Further, our vast populations organizes marriages,
celebrate birthdays and other family functions on a regular basis. Sweet shops
and small eateries can be found at every street corners and all such joints use
these disposal plates and bowls.
Due to the recent changes in the life style of urban and rural areas in the state
the demand for disposable cups in the state increasing at a rapid rate.

Moreover, to overcome this demands we the people, those who run the grocery
and whole seller have to buy these disposable products from our neighbouring
state, Assam. Therefore, it would be better if we have settled own disposable
manufacturing unit in our state. So that, we will not be dependent with our
neighbouring state to fulfil the demand of this disposable products.

B. Eco-friendly with health and environment

Urge of disposables is a great step towards preventing food-borne diseases. As

they are used only once thus these products significantly lower the food
contamination and spread of diseases.
Disposable Thermocol Products and dishes are very much needed in many
outdoor events. Disposable thermocol products are becoming more popular
across the globe as a way to become more eco-friendly and reduce exposure to
food borne infections. It does not pollute the environment as it is easily bio-
degradable when exposed to environment.

3. Manufacturing process and know how

The process of manufacturing is not very complicated. The product is

manufactured using the specific die. The paper and the polythene sheets are
previously cut to size or can be purchase as per the production requirement. The
specific die is mounted on the press and the die is heated to the desired
temperature. The two layer of paper and the polythene sheets are placed in
between the male-female die parts and pressure is applied so that the product
takes shape. The formed product is next removed and another set is loaded. The
machine is an ordinary press with one fixe platform and another moving plunge.
The movement of the plunge is through hydraulic mechanism. The formed
products are collected and the edges are trimmed to give it a proper shape. The
plates and bowls are packed separately and stocked for dispatched.

Now a days, fully automatic disposable plastic glass and thermocol

manufacturing machine is available. And, it is totally operate on electricity.
These machines is free from any kind of pollution to the environment.

The machinery is all indigenously available. The product capacity envisage is

30000-40000 nos per day per machine on two shifts basis for 300 days per year.

4. Plant and Machinery

The main plant and machinery required comprise
I. Fully automatic disposable plastic glass manufacturing machine.
– 1 no.
II. Fully automatic thermocol disposable plate and glass
manufacturing machine. – 1 no.
III. Bag sealing machine. – 1 no.

Total cost of machinery is estimated to be Rs. 9.5 lakhs.

The unit will also require miscellaneous assets such as furnitures, fixtures,
storage facilities etc. the total cost of these is estimated to be Rs. 0.50 lakhs.

The total requirement of power shall be 3 HP. The unit will need water for
general consumption.
5. Raw material and packing material

The basic raw materials for the unit are good quality scrap paper and polythene
sheets. For packing the unit will require polythene bag and hessian sacks. The
cut to size paper is readily available in two varieties thick and thin.

6. Land and Building Area Require

For the smooth operation of the unit, it will require some spacious built up area
approximately 300 sq.ft.

7. Manpower

For the smooth functioning of the unit the requirement of manpower is

expected to be around 6 persons.

Sales person Self

Skilled workers 2
Helpers 1

The annual salary bill is estimated to be around Rs. 3 lakhs.

8. Sales revenue: (100% capacity)

The selling price varies depending on the products quality.
