Production Facility
Nestled in a sprawling green campus an hour’s drive from Mysore, what used to be a textile mill has given way to a state-of-the-art production facility. Surrounded by coconut, chikoo (Sapodilla), banana plantation further symbolizes our green, with-the-environment technology. With over 200000 sqft available for expansion, we are well equipped to meet the demand. We have a current production capacity of 4 tonnes per day and our capacity will increase to 80 tonnes per day in the next 18 months.
