About 55 billion of coconuts are harvested annually in the world. Only 15% of the coir fibers are actually recovered for use. Most coir are abondoned in the nature, this is a waste of natural resources and a course of environmental pollution.
Carding process is a process of separating individual fibers, causing many of them to lay parallel and removing most of the remaining imporities. The coarseness form from the natural coconut coir will affect the quality of the mixing with the PP.
