From palm frond to finished cutlery.

From palm frond to finished cutlery.

How Palmade turns agricultural waste from UAE date palms into certified-compostable cutlery, from collection across the Emirates to production at our facility in Dubai.

01

Collection

UAE date palms shed their lower fronds as they grow, a natural process supported by the seasonal trimming that keeps the tree healthy. This agricultural waste has traditionally been burned in the open or sent to landfill.

We collect these fronds directly from farms, landscaping companies and municipalities across the Emirates, at no cost to them.

No trees are cut down to produce Palmade cutlery.
