Cocopeat is a natural fibre made out of coconut husks. The extraction of the coconut fibre from husks gives us this by-product called cocopeat. Cocopeat is a 100% natural growing medium. This cocopeat dried in the natural sun, are processed to produce different items namely cocopeat bale, cocopeat bags, cocopeat briquettes, cocopeat tablets etc. This makes an excellent growing medium for hydrophonics or container plant growing. Clean coir has natural rooting hormones and anti-fungal properties. Most of all cocopet is 100% organic natural and root friendly product.

What is Coir?

Coir is granular particles extracted from the Coconut husk. Once the ripe coconuts are harvested they are split and the inner kernel is extracted for getting Coconut oil or Coconut milk. The shell and the pith that covers it is dried and then broken down to extract the fiber to make Fiber ropes, Brushes, Door Mats, Fiber pots, Basket liners, etc. In this process the particles that were between the fibers were used traditionally to be tilled in clay soil to loosen up the soil. In recent times the Coconut fiber dust has been processed and packaged in different compressed forms sold as Coir.

Why Coir?

The FibreDust is composed of organic particles which have a spongy texture and a high water absorption and retention rate. Another important character of this material is that it is chemically neutral and serves as a perfect growth medium because any type of fertilizer can be added depending on the requirements of the crop to be grown.
