Natural Fiber Coco Coir - India

COIR is a versatile natural fibre extracted from mesocarp

tissue, or husk of the coconut fruit Generally fibre is of

golden color when cleaned after removing from coconut husk;

and hence the name " The Golden Fibre" .

Coir is the fibrous

husk of the coconut shell.

Being tough and naturally

resistant to seawater, the coir protects the fruit enough to

survive months floating on ocean currents to be washed up on

a sandy shore where it may sprout and grow into a tree, if

it has enough fresh water, because all the other nutrients

it needs have been carried along with the seed.

These

characteristics make the fibers quite useful in floor and

outdoor mats, aquarium filters, cordage and rope, and garden

mulch.

Uses / Applications Brown coir is used in brushes, doormats,

mattresses and sacking.

A small amount is also made into

twine.

Pads of curled brown coir fibre, made by needle-

felting ( a machine technique that mats the fibres together)

are shaped and cut to fill mattresses and for use in erosion

control on river banks and hillsides.

A major proportion of

brown coir pads are sprayed with rubber latex which bonds

the fibres together ( rubberized coir) to be used as

upholstery padding for the automobile industry in Europe.

The material is also used for insulation and packaging.

The

major use of white coir is in rope manufacture.

Mats of

woven coir fibre are made from the finer grades of bristle

and white fibre using hand or mechanical looms.

Coir is

recommended as substitute for milled peat moss because it is

free of bacteria and fungal spores.

Some Coir Facts COIR is a versatile natural fibre extracted

from mesocarp tissue, or husk of the coconut fruit.

The husk

contains 20% to 30% fibre of varying length.

After grinding

the husk, the long fibres are removed and used for various

industrial purposes, such as rope and mat making.

The

remaining material, composed of short and medium- length

fibres as well as pith tissue, is commonly referred to as

waste- grade coir.

The waste grade coir may be screened to

remove part or all of the fibre, and the remaining product

is referred to as coir pith.
