In a world grappling with environmental challenges and the urgency of safeguarding our planet, a new ray of hope has emerged from one of our nation’s esteemed Tea Estates, Dambetenna Tea Garden.
The visionary initiative, “Free of Polyethene,” brought to life by Agarapatana Plantations PLC and Managed by Lankem Tea & Rubber Plantations Limited, is poised to redefine not only the landscape of this prime property but also set a glowing example for the entire industry.
As the world seeks ways to grapple with the environmental crisis and strive towards a more sustainable future, Dambetenna Tea Garden’s pioneering initiative is a testament to the dedication and ingenuity of those at the forefront of the Tea industry. This groundbreaking concept is the brainchild of our dynamic Managing Director, Sunil Poholiyadde, a visionary leader who envisions a future where plantations and nature coexist harmoniously.
A tea garden committed to sustainability
Dambetenna Tea Garden, in the heart of Sri Lanka’s breathtaking hill country, is more than just a place that produces world-renowned Ceylon Tea. It’s a sanctuary of sustainability, a prime example of responsible agriculture, and a haven for wildlife. The “Free Of Polyethene” concept is not just a slogan; it’s a promise etched in every leaf that unfurls on the Tea bushes.
Ensuring human and wildlife Safety and health
The “Free of Polyethene” initiative isn’t solely about preserving the environment; it’s also about safeguarding the people and wildlife in and around the Estate. With polyethylene banned from Dambetenna, the air is cleaner, the water purer, and the land more fertile. The health of our employees and their families is a top priority, and the absence of harmful plastic waste guarantees safer working conditions.
The eradication of polyethene promotes the wellbeing of the flora and fauna that call Dambetenna home.
Lipton’s Seat
The tranquillity and natural allure of the landscape are further enhanced, allowing tourists to engage more intimately with the untouched beauty of Lipton Seat.
This conscious shift towards a polyethene-free environment at Dambetenna Tea Garden significantly influences Lipton Seat as a tourist destination. It amplifies the attraction’s appeal, drawing in visitors who seek not just panoramic views but an experience that resonates with ethical and sustainable practices. Travellers are not only treated to scenic vistas but also to a resonating message of environmental responsibility, making their journey a part of a greater sustainability narrative.
