At Nariyal, we take pride in how we have been able to transform coconut waste into beautiful, daily use products. For example here is a brief process of how eco-friendly bowls are crafted from discarded coconut shells.

• Collection: We gather discarded coconut shells from farms where they would otherwise be wasted. By wasted, we mean they would normally be burnt or put in landfill.
• Collaboration: Our team works closely with skilled artisans in local communities to repurpose these shells. The shells are first sanded and crafted into finished products. They are then carefully polished using natural coconut oil, ensuring each piece retains its natural beauty and durability.
• Quality Assurance: We check every item individually for any signs of breakage or other irregularities. Once the items reach our facilities in Canada, we re-polish and pack them using recycled materials, ready to be delivered to our customers.
• Sustainable Shipping: To minimize our carbon footprint, we prioritize transportation methods that have relatively lesser impact on our planet . For instance, in India, we use trains to transport our products, reducing carbon emissions by 80%. We partner with carbon neutral delivery partners such as Canada Post for shipping within Canada. For international shipping, we opt for sea freight and large consignments to further reduce our environmental impact.
