We understand the necessity of plastic in our rice packaging for freshness and convenience, and we encourage our users to recycle responsibly. Our plastic bags can be repurposed by creating DIY vegetable grow kits; simply cut small holes at the bottom, fill with compost soil, plant your favourite seed and water daily. In a few weeks, you’ll have fresh home-grown vegetables to enjoy with our delectable ISTANA Royal Rice varieties. Watch the video here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As a rice company, we’re dedicated to fighting single-use plastics. At our workplace, we reduce plastic waste by using reusable containers for storage, implementing a paperless system for documentation, and providing reusable utensils in our cafeteria.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
