Coir is a natural fiber extracted from the husk of coconut .Coir fibers are found between the hard, internal shell and the outer coat of a coconut.
The English word Coir had its origin from the similar sounding Tamil word kayar
Two varieties of coir fiber. Brown coir fibers & White coir fibers
Brown coir fiber is harvested from fully ripened coconuts. It is thick, strong and has high abrasion resistance. It is typically used in mats, brushes and sacking. Mature brown coir fibers contain more lignin and less cellulose than fibers such as flax and cotton and so are stronger but less flexible.
White coir fiber fibers are harvested from the coconuts before they are ripe. These fibers are white or light brown in color and are smoother and finer, but also weaker. They are generally spun to make yarn that is used in mats or rope.
Major producers:
Total world coir fiber production is 250,000 tonnes (250,000 long tons; 280,000 short tons). The coir fiber industry is particularly important in some areas of the developing world. India, mainly the coastal region of Tamilnadu & Kerala State, produces 60% of the total world supply of white coir fiber.
Used in products such as floor mats, doormats, brushes, mattresses etc.
Other uses of brown coir (made from ripe coconut) are in upholstery padding, sacking and horticulture. White coir is harvested from unripe coconuts, and is used for making finer brushes, string, rope and fishing nets.
