Coir blankets can cover large areas of streams, river embankments or shorelines, with wetland vegetation grown in it, quickly helping negate erosion in areas with tidal variation, detention basins or wetlands. These blankets are grown in nurseries prior to installation and are therefore conducive for the plants. Sediment collections around roots of plants provide for healthy plant growth. After sometime these blankets get covered with sediment and soil from the wave action and get fully covered with soil. One interesting aspect of this vegetative blanket is that the roots of the plants generally grow very fast, and fix itself to the earth quickly, whereby the relative displacement of the blanket is arrested. These blankets do not float in the medium of water.
Coir pots are made of biodegradable coconut fibers molded with an organic rubber lining. These coir pots will maintain their original shape for nearly 6-months while plants continue to grow in them, after which the plant with the pot can both be transferred to the ground, and the pot will decompose with time.
Coir pots come in various sizes and a comfortable range of designs to suit any garden space. Coir pots are an ideal eco friendly solution because they do not obstruct irrigation and rainfall and they also do not prevent soil ventilation
Coco peat is used as a soil additive. Due to low levels of nutrients in its composition, coco peat is usually not the sole component in the medium used to grow plants.
Coco peat primarily consists of the coir fiber pith or coir dust which is obtained by processing coconut husk and removing the long fibers. The coco peat which is obtained can hold large quantities of water, just like a sponge. It is used as a replacement for traditional peat in soil mixtures, or, as a soil-less substrate for plant cultivation.
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.
Geo textiles, made out of Coir fiber are constructed to give high tensile strengths by using high twisted with low runnage twines, with close weaving. Depending on the tightness of the weave (the grid openings) Coir Geo Textiles can contribute to high erosion resistance materials. Since Coir fiber has the ability to absorb and retain moisture, it invariably helps growth and development of vegetation. High tensile strength quality Geo Nets spread across steep gradient slopes and easily erodible loose/small particle soils will successfully prevent erosion. These nets can also very effectively be used on slopes threatened by frost shear and also in high surface run-off conditions. The following types of woven 100% Coir geo-textiles are available.
Ideally used for
Stream Bank Restoration
Vegetation
Wetland Restoration
Stabilization in High Flow Channels
Slope Stabilization and Vegetation
Hand Made Coir based Cylindrical Pots are manufactured from long fibers of the inner husk of coconuts. These fibers are held together by spraying a fine coating of latex, and compressed to form, and are used as pots of a variety of sizes to cater to the various needs of a gardening enthusiast.
Varied heights and diameters of the these pots make them unique and create a fashion statement in both a Home or a commercial establishment. An excellent feature is that these cylindrical pots may be used both indoor and out, giving it a versatile usage.
