As environmental concerns rise, the biodegradable products industry is gaining momentum, offering sustainable alternatives to conventional plastics. These eco-conscious manufacturers focus on creating products from natural, biodegradable materials that break down over time, addressing the growing need for waste reduction. By harnessing cutting-edge technologies like material science and 3D printing, the industry delivers innovative solutions across packaging and commodities contributing to a circular economy. Nav Green Enterprises stands as a leader in this space, committed to providing high quality biodegradable products. With a focus on quality control and efficiency, the company continuously innovates to reduce environmental waste. Backed by a strong management team and a dedicated workforce, the firm ensures long-term success through ongoing staff training, positioning itself at the forefront of sustainable manufacturing.
Transforming Sustainability
Nav Green Enterprises, founded by a first-time entrepreneur, is committed to producing compostable carry bags as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic carry bags. The journey began with a realization of the high costs associated with compostable products often priced around Rs800/kg in 2018 especially in a city with limited manufacturing infrastructure. Through extensive research over several years, the entrepreneur identified the challenges of shifting consumer preferences from inexpensive plastic carry bags to biodegradable bag costing just Rs 200/kg at present. Despite initial setbacks,
including losses of nearly 78 lakhs, the company focused on innovative production methods to enhance efficiency and reduce costs. As a result, Nav Green Enterprises has successfully lowered prices by approximately 75 percent compared to traditional plastic bags, making compostable alternatives more accessible.
“My journey as a first-time entrepreneur has been both challenging and rewarding. The first support which I got from my parents to initiate a manufacturing industry. After doing an extensive research into machinery, I aimed to equip my manufacturing unit with customized, high-speed machines. Observing foreign companies achieving production rates of 90-110 kg/hr, I recognized the need for innovation, as Indian machines typically produced only 40-50 kg/hr. Collaborating with manufacturers, I designed machines that combined multiple functions with 80-85 kg/hr, also with innovation of water based printing ink technology for employee’s safety and environmental safety. Transitioning from a career in aeronautical engineering to manufacturing posed challenges, positive ideas from family, particularly in securing financial support from bank after long struggle”, speaks Naveen.
At Nav Green Enterprises, we believe in providing only original, highquality biodegradable products, ensuring that our commitment to the environment remains uncompromised
Authentic Biodegradable Products
The company prioritizes quality, ensuring all its biodegradable products are authentic and environment friendly. While many competitors offer low-quality, counterfeit alternatives, the firm stands by its registered trademark and refuses to compromise on standards. Nav Green Enterprises also emphasizes the superior quality of its products, which starts to decompose in three to four months. The firm is exploring cost-effective bio-materials based on corn, sugarcane and plant leaf starch waste to maintain high standards while reducing costs. The company’s commitment to quality defines its reputation, and it continues to educate customers about the value of choosing eco-friendly standard products.
The firm’s future vision is clear and ambitious. “We aim to see our company listed on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), marking a significant milestone in our growth journey. Achieving this goal requires a dedicated team and substantial revenue growth, as we recognize that entering the share market is no small feat. We understand that consistent, bulk growth is essential to navigate the complexities of scaling our operations. When asked about our future, I often emphasize this aspiration, as it reflects our commitment to building a sustainable business that stands out in the industry”, adds Naveen. As the firm continues to innovate and expand its production capabilities, the firm is focused on creating a strong foundation that will enable it to reach this pivotal goal, positioning Nav Green Enterprises as a leader in the eco-friendly manufacturing sector.
