This is what real "Make In India" looks like
These same news websites mock "Make in India" though.
@@flowerbear_ new for you, you didn't even heard the video it's very old concept for them. Problem is we don't search for companies selling eco friendly products coz we want sasta always.
@Aryan More this is also concept of future,how could you say this is not makein india when European countries are making bioplastics research a reality. Dude please search for things before telling anyone and also make in India means manufacturing in India not just certain category of products. Kitaabi bate my batao wo khud tk rakho
Wowww www...love from israel it may eliminate plastic and may clean india more then literally nobody in the world have a chance to say that india is dirty
it will helps india to boom tourism.....love to india from israel all the best india
Years ago people used to eat on pattal(plate made of leaves). People still do in villages on weddings and bhandaras. Many south Indians eat on banana leaves. Clay pots and wooden ladles are still used in some households to cook food. Using biodegradable utensils is not a new concept in India, but sadly most of the people switched to plastic utensils.
The issue of plastic is from single use plastic bags that vendors use to pack food, vegetables etc. in Bangalore the municipality is so corrupt that waste collection is not done regularly and people throw garbage on the road, a simple glance can show you plastic bags everywhere, people use plastic bags to tie leftover food, waste etc and throw in in road side. The cows and dogs eat this and the filth is spread across the road. The cow dung today had turned a weird green colour and is watery like the cow has constant diarrhoea. Sigh😢
Germany is now days using same Indian technology. They are making bio degradable plates with dry leaves. Check it out. 😇
This is what when we blindly follow west.
Looks like the ban of plastics is working in India.
We need this ban on single-use plastics in every country.
Not at all working
No it's not it worked only 1 month and now plastic are back it really annoys me I always carry a cloth bag with me when I go out just in case mom call and ask me to buy something
Agriculture waste causing smog in Delhi NCR region should be used to make biodegradable products and replace plastic.
i have a question, why don't companies like flipkart, Amazon reuse their cardboard packages?
They actually do.
Because people throw them here and there 😞😞
@@chandrahasan3225 how and where, they haven't ever collected the boxes from anywhere in our locality.
@@dr.history1119 yes, but this creates more waste. There can be a better mechanism for this thing.
@@chandrahasan3225 it is seen in usa, europe only
All the best. We need many more of these. Government should make a committee of members only to develop these industries
Amazing
We need more of it and i wish your business grows million times.
This is a wonderful idea. It would really be revolutionary if it gets implemented all over India 😀
I am using this product overseas. Fantastic product. It can even be used a few times.
Very Nice Riya ji. All the Best to your Entire Group
I have a suggestion for water savings,
if you have a water purifier at your home, collect the water in a bucket and you can reuse it by watering the plants, or you can even use the water in your washrooms, or may be mopping the floor.
We also do that in our home
@@dipanwitadas good to know 🙂
Most people already do that. We do this in our locality because we have shortage of water. We use that water for washing clothes, for bathing, for washing utensils, for wiping floors basically for everything except drinking that.
@@nupsvashisht1511 good to know people doing it there. Well in our locality i haven't seen many people practicing water saving techniques and therefore would like to spread as much awareness as possible.
Don't use purifier ....just boil water and drink.... Simple.... And strong too
Not only in India, world need this. Greeting from Indonesia My Brother!
A small business can bear some extra cost involved in the packaging process but the e-commerce websites can't. So much respect for these people. Thank you Ecoware. We as low earning people can't do anything except for choosing wisely and stopping the usage of single use plastics by changing our choices and switching to eco-friendly packages but for that we need options, which can be provided with government reforms only or inbuilt desire like this lady to be eco-friendly.
I love your information about ecological inventions. You should be showing this around the world!
We need more businesses like this. Well done!
Neelam ji... Karte hai fir...
You are doing a great job,, which is not less than what a soldier done at the Boarder.
Well done Madam,
India needs the entrepreneurs like you in a large number with different innovations.
Expand your business in all over India,,
That is also why we manufacture the paper cutlery making machine!I am from Zhejiang Ounuo machinery Co.,Ltd China!Let' have a green world.
First today. Keep up the good work. Love from Nepal 🇳🇵🇳🇵
respect guys
I would be happy when this company grows 50 fold atleast,also others who are capable should also think of producing it...
Still grocers are giving out plastic bags...why not stop manufacturing in first place? The video is good.
Instead of banning plastic, first govt. should ban industries which manufactures plastic.
Love these videos about my soul country
Wish best of luck and prosperous growth to Rhea... Proud of you...
Excellent product. I am using it. It is even reusable. They are doing a very good job.
Thank you Riya
This is the India everybody wants to see, not the Modi-RSS-BJP-Vakt-Gao Raksha version. Love from Bangladesh.
Dnt talk about India if you are from Bangladesh.
@@rajeshbobba3851 Why??
Brother earlier it was pro minority, now pro majority... We need a equality mindset government with proper scientific and cultural temperment along with brutal force
You country is same like us..... Although now stabilized but still some of you people kill and drive hindus out
No matter what i love bangladesh because it has given us hope like india... Making a islamic country develop without oil is a challenge in itself and yet most the people love everyone except a few... I wish someday we all can love pakistan too because a developed neighbour is a happy neighbour..... It will let india live in peace.. #Love bangladesh.
We should encourage this kind of biodegradable material. And these type of factories will also provide employment for many people.
I m ageed with you, clapping for work of this company or factory 👏

Great Initiative.. Seriously how can someone dislike this video 😏
Rhea you are very inspiring. Thank you so much . Would love to work with Ecoware🙏
Good work. Thank you for saving motherland from chemicals. Wish all cities and towns start to use bio-degradable.
Thanks team

govt of india should encourage this type of companies

What a name. Preeti. I like it.
Proud of you Mrs, majumdar Singhal, mam , I will contact with you mam 🙏
These echo plates and bottles has to reach through out our country. You have to share these technology ang give assistance. This is amazing.
Priceless service 👍🏻
I really appreciate your work👍

Nice to see in india.
Thank you for creating such a great alternative
This is much needed
After covid-19 plastic use has again full speed wish everyone become aware of it. Thanks eco for these product
Is program ko hindi me bhi bnaiye na..,.
@dangerous at any speed learn to respect others. You might be knowing english but don't have etiquettes.
@dangerous at any speed respect their view & respect their language
Siddhant Kumawat 👌🏻
Great Work I salute Mam
This is amazing .
Dear Rhea, I buy your products regularly. A loyal customer here who shares your vision.
They are doing a great work.. if they find any alternative for the single use plastic gloves and masks for worker that will be more eco friendly..
This is so great !
Well done. We need it
ALL THE BEST
Bravo!!
Govt shoud support this kind of companies..
Well done, burger place. When I order food online, I give preference to restaurants that use eco packaging. Apps like Uber Eats and Deliveroo should show which ones are doing it.
Please also thank the gov for banning single use plastic, which has made the demand for these and the price feasible for business to choose these.
Keep innovating & doing 👌👍
Great. Something in mass always a strain for environment. Hope investment is made to indentify disadvantage
Amazing 🤩
Kudos .. very good job..
Gonna buy this next time
Thank you. That was an amazing video. I was eagerly waiting for this video. I am also running a food business in Gurgaon for which I am looking for food packaging services.
We should be worshipping well educated and socially responsible people who moves back to India,
Thanks to scroll.in for such good videos
Love ❤
Great initiative
Very informative
Do something to collect plastic packaging covers from each house the way Newspapers are purchased may be very less price so that most indian will not throw here and there and sell whatever small amount they get for that.
Also all packaging materials should be taken back by the product company and they should reuse that to deliver other good.
Great initiative ma’am 👍🏻
Good job
Comparing the costs of these products with plastic products must be done in order to convince small scale street food businesses to replace plastic with these.
Awesome video
Good👍👍👍👍
This is excellent program . Please make it hindi also .
🔥
Good job mam
We can also use these compostable products to cushion or support fragile products like glassware while delivering, bubblewraps are such an evil.
Instead of providing so much incentives on useless sectors India should give these companies incentives, and of course this comes with an assurance of providing employment .
Good
I really really want to work in this company...
good
👍👍👍
Great initiative!! Please extend your services to Tamil Nadu too!!
👏👏💯
Nice
hi,sir Do you need a mechanical hand for the injection molding machine?Our company specializes in smart manipulator do you want to know about it.
Go Girl! #GirlPower
Which material is .this made of
It is ecoware,made from agricaltural residue,which is otherwise burnt...
One of her mission is to supply this as a container alternative to INDIAN RAILWAYS...!!!
dangerous at any speed jihadist
@dangerous at any speed not true but àctually the exam pads we get are combination of cow dung and paper pulp so yeah
With all these innovation around, I think we should ban single use plastic and paperwares. World today need biodegradable stuff.
All nice and good, but how it is made?
Missing morning fix☹️☹️☹️
I want to become one like her..
A wonderful idea, posibility of traning?
Here in kerala we use banana leaves or reusable plastic/glass which is reused after washing
At least somebody is doing good to the country.
