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.
Coco peat, also known as coir peat or coconut coir, is a natural byproduct derived from the processing of coconut husks. It is a renewable and sustainable alternative to traditional peat moss, often used in gardening, horticulture, and agriculture.
Description
Coco peat, also known as coir peat or coconut coir, is a natural byproduct derived from the processing of coconut husks. It is a renewable and sustainable alternative to traditional peat moss, often used in gardening, horticulture, and agriculture.
Growing Medium: Coco peat is widely used as a growing medium or soilless substrate for growing plants in containers, raised beds, and hydroponic systems. It has excellent water retention properties, holding up to 8-10 times its weight in water, while also providing good aeration and drainage for plant roots.
Soil Amendment: Coco peat can be mixed with garden soil or other growing media to improve soil structure, water retention, and nutrient availability. It helps loosen compacted soils, increase moisture retention in sandy soils, and enhance drainage in clay soils, making it suitable for a wide range of soil types and plant species.
Seed Starting: Coco peat is ideal for starting seeds and propagating cuttings due to its light texture and ability to retain moisture. It provides a sterile and weed-free environment for seed germination, while also promoting healthy root development and reducing transplant shock.
Potting Mix Component: Coco peat is often used as a component of potting mixes and growing media for container plants, both indoors and outdoors. It helps maintain a consistent moisture level in pots and containers, reducing the frequency of watering and the risk of overwatering or underwater

Cocopeat blocks are considered an ideal growing medium. The cocopeat powder thus obtained is sieved, washed, dried and finally compressed into blocks. The blocks can be used for a wide range of planting requirements. Coir is known for its natural rooting hormones and anti-fungal properties. We also ensure secure packaging of the cocopeat blocks.

COCO FIBER is a coarse fiber extracted from the fibrous outer shell of a coconut. The coir fiber is relatively water-proof and is one of few natural fibers resistant to damage by salt water.
Coir fiber is used in floormats and doormats, automobile dashboard, brushes, sleeping mattresses, and for use in erosion control on river banks and hillsides as geotextile. Coir Fiber pads are sprayed with rubber latex which bonds the fibers together (rubberized coir) to be used as upholstery padding for the automobile industry in Europe. The material is also used for insulation and packaging.

Coco peat brick is also known as coir pith or coir dust, it’s made from coconut husks. Coco peat primarily consists of the coir fiber pith or coir dust which is obtained by processing coconut husk and removing the long fibers.
Planet Coco’s peat brick is low in EC and have very low salt content. Our Coco peat is aged and composted for over 18 months and thorough washed. Our one liter brick can be expanded up to 8 liters by adding 2 liters of water. 650 Bricks are a perfect size to handle and it’s the perfect size for home gardeners.
