Selection of Raw Material
For manufacturing good quality of Coco fibre, we are using coconuts from the farms which are very close to the riverside. For producing Coco peat, we are using the coir dust, which is a by-product of extracting coir fiber from the coconut husk. Coco peat is the binding material that comes from the fibre portion of the coconut husk. The coir dust is washed, heat treated, screened and graded before being processed into various Cocopeat products for Horticultural & Agricultural applications and as Industrial Absorbent. Cocopeat is dried and stored in cemented concrete yards with boundary walls to prevent it from mixing with external seeds/weeds.

Washing
The Raw Material is washed with fresh water to reduce the E.C. level. We have six washing trays/tanks and we are using a specific technology for washing the material evenly. Frequent Tests are done to confirm the E.C level of the material. A final will be done on each lot of the washed material before drying process.

Drying
The washed material then dried to open sky in the cement yard The Drying Process is undertaken in the vast spread cement yard (about 70,000 sq. ft.) which is free of foreign particles surrounded by a compound wall. The material is being sent for drying to the drying yard at specified moisture level. At this level the tests for confirming the moisture are done. After confirming the moisture level, the material is screened by passing through the screeners before it compressed.

Screening
Screening is done in revolving screeners, Bed type vibrators and sand separators to remove the foreign particle, if any presented in the washed material. Then the material will be ready for compaction.

Quality Control
The quality control is carried by experienced, highly qualified quality control Staffs. It is ensured that each and every block manufactured in our factory is subjected to through quality tests like E.C level, pH level and moisture etc. We are maintaining quality in each level of production process from collecting raw materials till the product shipment by testing EC, pH, Expansion, free of weeds and sand. We have a separate quality control laboratory which is operated by highly qualified staffs.

Compacting
We are having good manufacturing capacities. Our current capacity is 500 tons of fibre, 250 tons of Curled Coir Rope and 500 tons of coco peat per month and is planning to increase it in near future. Presently, we are manufacturing Compressed Cocopeat in 5 kg blocks.

Packing
The above products are loaded in container by floor loading or by palletized loading. The individual pallets gets sink wrapped. The loadable quantity is depends upon the products, palletized or floor loading, size of container (20 ft / 40 ft). Normally we use Methyl Bromide for container fumigation process.
