Keeping our country clean

We believe that this kind of eco-friendly manufacturing  has to be promoted to keep our country’s environment clean to minimize impact to human health, provide solutions for waste problems, bring awareness to population, help tourism industry to be cleaner and will contribute to Luang Prabang reputation for environmental care and cleanness.

Working with local communities

Producing eco plates and containers creates direct employment for local comunities and bring an extra income.

Because we buy sheaths at a fair price, local families collecting sheaths also benefit a significant source of revenue.

Building partnership

Nahm Dong is now developing a cooperation with similar project based in south east asia. As Thailand is becoming a leader, we are working on setting up a strong network of eco-plates producers.
