Coco peat (cocopeat), also known as coir pith, coir fibre pith, coir dust, or simply coir, is made from coconut husks, which are by products of other industries that use coconuts. Coir waste from coir fiber industries is washed, heat-treated, screened and graded before being processed into coco peat products of various granularity and denseness, which are then used for horticultural and agricultural applications and as industrial absorbent. Usually shipped in the form of compressed bales, briquettes, slabs or discs, the end user usually expands and aerates the compressed coco peat by the addition of water. A single kilogram of coco peat will expand to 15 litres of moist coco peat

Coco peat is a natural, sustainable, and biodegradable growing medium made from coconut husks, primarily used in horticulture and agriculture. It's a versatile material used for seed germination, rooting, hydroponics, and soil improvement.
Detailed Description:
Origin:
Coco peat is the non-fibrous, spongy part of the coconut husk, a by-product of coconut fiber extraction.
Processing:
It undergoes a series of processes including washing, drying, sieving, and grading to ensure quality and suitability for different applications.
Forms:
Coco peat is available in various forms, including loose dust, pressed bricks, and briquettes, catering to different needs and preferences.
Properties:
It is lightweight, porous, and has a high water-holding capacity, making it ideal for promoting root growth and plant health.
Benefits:
Sustainable and Biodegradable: Coco peat is a natural and renewable resource that decomposes in the environment.
Excellent Water Retention: It can absorb and retain water, ensuring plants have access to adequate moisture.
Good Aeration: The porous structure allows for proper aeration of roots, promoting healthy growth.
Sterile and Weed-Free: Processing removes dirt, pathogens, and weeds, ensuring a clean and healthy growing environment.
Versatile: Used in hydroponics, seed germination, soil amendment, and as a potting mix component.
Applications:
Horticulture: Used in nurseries, greenhouses, and garden applications.
Agriculture: Used in soil improvement, crop production, and soilless farming.
Hydroponics: A popular substrate for growing plants without soil.
Coirex Husk Chips helps sprouting seedlings grow healthily by preserving soil moisture and releasing vital nutrients. Additionally, it resists fungus and has great drainage and nutrient retention capacity. It has been demonstrated to be a wonderful substrate for hydroponically growing plants, such as orchids, as well as a mulch and ground cover. Chips of coco husk are often used as a bed for reptiles.
COIREX Brown Fibre is allowed to retain more moisture, elastic enough to twist without breaking and it holds a curl as though permanently waved. It is used in brushes, doormats, mattresses and sacks.
Coco peat, also known as coir pith, is the fibrous material that is obtained from the outer husk of coconut shells. It is increasingly being used as a growing medium in horticulture and agriculture due to its many beneficial properties.
Coco peat is high in nutrients and organic matter, improves soil structure, water retention, and provides aeration to the soil so it is widely used for Soil amendment, Seed starting, Hydroponics, Potting mix and Animal bedding.
