Banana plant not only gives the delicious fruit but it also provides textile fiber, the banana fiber. It grows easily as it sets out young shoots and is most commonly found in hot tropical climates. All varieties of banana plants have fibers in abundance. These fibers are obtained after the fruit is harvested and fall in the group of bast fibers. This plant has long been a good source for high quality textiles in many parts of the world, especially in Japan and Nepal. Extraction of Banana Fiber The processes for making yarn from banana fibers vary from region to region. Most popular methods among these are those followed in India. Characteristics of Banana Fiber: Banana fiber is a natural bast fiber. It has its own physical and chemical characteristics and many other properties that make it a fine quality fiber. • Appearance of banana fiber is similar to that of bamboo fiber and ramie fiber, but its fineness and spinnability is better than the two. • The chemical composition of banana fiber is cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. • It is highly strong fiber. • It has smaller elongation. • It has somewhat shiny appearance depending upon the extraction & spinning process. • It is light weight. • It has strong moisture absorption quality. It absorbs as well as releases moisture very fast. • It is bio- degradable and has no negative effect on environment and thus can be categorized as eco-friendly fiber. • Its average fineness is 2400Nm. • It can be spun through almost all the methods of spinning including ring spinning, open-end spinning, bast fiber spinning, and semi-worsted spinning among others. Applications of Banana Fiber: In the recent past, banana fiber had a very limited application and was primarily used for making items like ropes, mats, and some other composite materials. With the increasing environmental awareness and growing importance of eco-friendly fabrics, banana fiber has also been recognized for all its good qualities and now its application is increasing in other fields too such as apparel garments and home furnishings. However, in Japan, it is being used for making traditional dresses like kimono, and kamishimo since the Edo period (1600-1868). Due to its being lightweight and comfortable to wear, it is still preferred by people there as summer wear. Banana fiber is also used to make fine cushion covers, Necties, bags, table cloths, curtains etc. Rugs made from banana silk yarn fibers are also very Banana fiber is a new textile fiber. It is more green, more detailed, more shiny, more thinner. We supply monthly 15tons for regular basic. 100Kg Pack or as per customers requirement bespoke packing.

CHAMPS AGRO UNIT Started the banana fife extracting project in Thane Maharashtra in the year 2008. PROJECT EXPANSION:- Our Thane division Developed Machinery for Banana fiber extraction. A semi Automatic Simple device which can be operated 1.H.P. Motor with single phase power conception. Description of the Machine:- Hard Chromed blade and Rods. The machine consists of a rigid frame bearing on which the roller rotates. The roller consists of horizontal Hard chromed blades with blunt edges. The roller is connected to 1 H.P ISI Motor by belt pulley mechanism. Safety precaution like emergency stopper pulley guards are incorporated in the machine In a short time, we supplied machine in various Institutes all over India Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Bihar, Gujarat, Nepal, M.P, U.P chatisghad, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Slowly the project expansion was done in Export Mexico, Maldives, The banana plant is dumped as waste, farmers often face the problem of disposal of Pseudo stems and these huge stocks are getting accumulated in banana growing areas. The fruitful utilization of these stems is, therefore, an important issue related to Banana Cultivation.
