The natural fibres which can be extracted from the husk of the coconut regarded as COIR FIBRE, and COIR PITH (COCOPEAT) as the waste material obtained during the extraction process.

Common identification for the above two raw materials have now been given as COIR while the specific characteristics of each raw material remain unchanged.
