Coir production involves extracting fibers from the husk of coconuts, specifically the Cocos nucifera species. The process begins with harvesting mature coconuts, which are then soaked in water to soften the husk. After soaking, the fibers are separated from the hard shell and pith, resulting in long, strong strands of coir. Once extracted, the coir fibers can be processed into various products, such as mats, ropes, and brushes. Coir is valued for its durability and resistance to saltwater, making it popular for use in gardening and erosion control. The production process is often labor-intensive but supports local economies in coconut-growing regions.
