Coir Fibre is among the thickest and strongest of all natural fibres that are in commercial use today. It is short, coarse, and extracted from the outer husk of the coconut.
Coconuts that are fully ripe are collected for brown coir. It has good abrasion resistance.It is thick and sturdy. It is frequently utilised in sacking, matting, and brushes. Compared to fibres like flax and cotton, mature brown coir fibres have more lignin and less cellulose. Brown coir is processed using fresh water.
Before they are fully ripe, coconuts are plucked for their white coir fibres. These fibres are smoother, finer, and either white or light brown in colour. They are also weaker. Typically, they are spun to create yarn for mats or rope.
