When it comes to coir, there are two different types of coir that can be used to make
coir fiber
: brown and white. Brown coir is the most common and comes from the inner shell of mature coconuts. It is dark in color and very strong. White coir, on the other hand, comes from unripened green coconuts and must soak in water for more than 10 months before the fibers separate. White coir is not as strong as brown coir but offers more flexibility.
Uses of coconut husk fiber.
Landscaping and Gardening
Coir is often used in gardening and landscaping projects. For example, coco coir peat looks and feels like traditional soil, but retains more moisture, thus keeping your plant roots from drying out. Coir also repels most insects, creating a natural pest management system for your garden.
Coco chips are often used in places where you would traditionally use bark chips. Because they help retain water, coco chips are great for mulching around trees. Coir woven textiles are applied to the ground in areas prone to erosion. The textile absorbs water, helps seed germination, and promotes new vegetation growth.
