COCO COIR
Coco Coir 5Kg Blocks
Coco Coir is the non-fibrous, spongy, light weight, corky material that holds together the coir fibre in coconut husk. It was in early 90’s that the horticultural use of coco coir was discovered and the material demand has been in the rise ever since. Globally known by the name Coco Coir, they are also known as Coco Coir in the US and Coir Pith in the Middle-East. It is a 100% organic, natural and bio-degradable substance which was the by-product of Coconut Fibre Extraction process, but not any more. It is now the co-product of coconut fibre extraction process.
