Bristle / coir fibre – CEILAN COIR PRODUCTS EXPORT
The fibrous layer or husk of the coconut fruit is separated from the hard shell by driving the fruit down on to a spike to split it. Put the husks in to De-husking machines (husk buster) which crush the husk to give the loose fibers.
The stiff, straight and long strands of fiber are termed bristle fiber or brush fiber. The basic grade of bristle fiber is known as 1 Tie fiber. This is then further hackled and classified into 2 Tie and 3 Tie based on the length of strands and the general condition of fibers.
The fibrous husks are soaked in pits or in nets in a slow moving body of water to swell and soften the fibers. After soaking, the fibrous husks then processed into decorticator machine to crush them again until all of the husk separate became loose fibers. The fibers are sifted by screener machine to remove coir dust and other foreign matter, then dried with sun drying and pressed into bales.
Coir fiber is used in floor mats and doormats, automobile dashboard, brushes, 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 fibres together (rubberized coir) to be used as upholstery padding for the automobile industry in Europe. The material is also used for insulation and packaging.

GreenPeatcoco’s Process Of Making Coir Fibre
At Greenpeat Coco, we carefully make coir fiber from coconut husks using a detailed process. After removing the coconut from its husk, we process the husks through various retting techniques. The husks are placed in brackish water ponds, where they undergo 10 to 12 months of natural bacterial fermentation. This process softens the husks, making it easier to separate the fibers through manual beating. After the fibers are extracted, they are hackled (to cut roughly) , washed, and dried in the shade.
We then manually loosen and clean the fibers to ensure high quality. The residual pith, once considered waste, is now used as a peat moss substitute for gardening. This traditional method yields premium white fibers ideal for spinning and weaving, while shorter retting times produce coarser brown yarns used in geo-textiles. This method gives us top-quality brown yarn, we shorten the retting time, which is great for making sturdy materials used in outdoor fabrics and other practical applications.
