Bamboo match sticks production
Wood is the major raw material for manufacturing matchsticks. However, the match industry has been dependent on only a few wood species for making match splints and these species are now in short supply. Therefore, bamboo, one of the faster growing plants, is a sustainable raw material source for manufacturing matchsticks. The main advantages of using bamboo for matchstick production are: (a) Reduction in the use of timber. (b) Renewable within short rotation period, bamboo is a sustainable raw material resource for making matchsticks. (c) Growing bamboo helps to reduce soil erosion and thereby helps to enhance the productivity of adjoining agricultural land.
