Coir Geotextiles are 100% natural, bio-degradable fabrics made from coir yarn. They are widely used in landscaping and geotechnical engineering to control soil erosion and promote vegetation.
Coir Geotextiles are, in fact, woven fabric of coir yarn. Coir Yarn is made from 100% natural fibre coconut fibre. Consequently, coir geotextile is 100% organic and bio-degradable.Coconut fibre is naturally resistant to rot and microbial attacks. It is also one of the most durable natural fibres available to man-kind. Doormats and Geotextiles make use of these properties of Coconut Fibre.
Why should you use Coir Geotextiles?
Firstly, the fabric is 100% natural and bio-degradable. Therefore, it doesn’t hurt the ecosystem.
Secondly, the fabric is highly porous in nature. Therefore, it helps drain the water to the ground with ease while keeping the soil beneath it intact. Consequently, the precious topsoil gets preserved for vegetation.
Thirdly, coir can retain a significant amount of moisture. Therefore, it regulates the soil humidity and temperature and consequently aids the healthy growth of plants.
In short, the coir fabric retains the top soil and provide an ideal environment for the plants to thrive. As the plants grow, their roots will penetrate the soil and take over the role of the coir fabric. Thereafter, the plant roots acts as a natural blanket controlling soil erosion.
