COIR

Coir is a coarse fiber obtained from the tissues surrounding the seed of the coconut
palm, Cocos nucifera
. The intact fruit has a smooth leathery skin above the thick fibrous layer. This surrounds the dark brown shell, which is actually part of the fruit rather than the seed. Inside the shell are the papery brown outer layer (husk) of the seed surrounding the nutritious white flesh and the embryo.

The Coir Mat and Matting is a product line of this - 100% natural & biodegradable husk

used as floor coverings for your health and comfort. It is a product that will meet

and even exceed the high standards demanded by environment conscious individuals.
