Industrial Fibre

Extracted from the husk of the coconut, coco fibre is used in many industries due to its 100% natural and eco-friendly features. The fibre can be further developed into Bristle, Twisted or Bale Fibre, and used in a variety of different forms for home, agricultural and industrial purposes.

Bristle Fibre

Available in three different varieties (1 Tie / 2 Tie / 3 Tie), bristle fibre can range in length from 15 cm to 25 cm. Its strength and versatility allow for it to be cut to specific lengths and used to make a variety of brushes and twines. 

 

Twisted Fibre

Coir fibre is twisted into coils using the ‘Ferrer Machine Twisted’ technique, which involves twisting, steaming and spinning the rope, to give the fibre a tight curl. The fibre is then passed through an untwisting machine, to give it a curled, spring-like feel. This product is then turned into sheets and used in spring mattresses in the bedding industry, and for car seats and cushions, to ensure maximum comfort levels.

Bale Fibre

Coir fibre can be compressed into bales. Bales consist of the coir fiber pith or coir dust, which is acquired through the removal of long fibres in the coconut husk. They can be made with different mixtures of coco peat and coco husk, to create varying sizes of bedding (solid mattress/spring cover sheets), sheets, upholstery, seating, drainage filters and erosion control applications. Given fibre’s cooling and clean properties, it is a healthy alternative to synthentic products. Their usage in coir mattresses increases comfort and better sleep. Bale fibre can also be used as a raw material in the production of other horticulture and agriculture applications.
