Are you aware that banana fabric polymer is revolutionizing the manufacturing industry? As a cost-effective substitute for glass fiber, this innovative material is becoming increasingly popular for its versatility and environmental benefits. In this blog, we will dive into the world of banana fabric polymer, its applications, and the opportunities it presents for the Kenyan market.

Unleashing the Potential

Banana fabric polymer composite is a strong, durable, and biodegradable material that can be used as a fiber reinforced with plastic.

From trays and mirror casings to voltage stabilizer covers and electrical panels, this remarkable material is reshaping industries. Not only is it functional, but it also boasts an impressive cost advantage over traditional glass fiber.

The Production Process

The production process of banana fabric polymer involves several steps. First, molds are prepared using materials such as metal, wood, or plaster of Paris. Next, the resin is mixed with dye in the required proportions. Then, the banana fabric is carefully shaped onto the mold, and the polymer is layered over it. The resulting product is cured, de-molded, cut, trimmed, and finally polished for market.

Unraveling the Benefits

Apart from being a cost-effective substitute for glass fiber, it offers other compelling advantages. Banana plants are abundantly available in the country, making it a sustainable and locally sourced material. By incorporating banana fabric polymer into their manufacturing processes, businesses can effectively contribute to Kenya’s economic growth while also protecting the environment.

Targeting Manufacturing Industries for Growth

The demand for banana fabric polymer is steadily rising, which presents an excellent opportunity for local businesses to tap into a potentially lucrative market. This material is versatile and can be used in various manufacturing sectors, including automobile, construction, and electrical industries among others. Research shows that the banana fabric polymer has vast potential in the manufacturing of many everyday items. 

Leveraging Capabilities

Setting up a plant for banana fabric polymer production requires a modest investment. With an estimated project cost of US$4,325, you can establish a plant with a capacity of 10,000 kg per annum. Such an endeavor can yield an estimated revenue of US$62,000 per year with a remarkably short payback period of only 2 years and 1 month.

Supporting Local Businesses

When it comes to equipment sourcing, local manufacturers can provide suitable options. Government incentives are also available for new businesses, such as startup cost grants.

Taking a Leap Towards a Sustainable Future

The Kenyan market has a unique opportunity to embrace banana fabric polymer. By incorporating this material into manufacturing processes, businesses can benefit from its cost-effectiveness and contribute to a sustainable future. The possibilities are endless, and the time to seize this opportunity is now.
