Processing of Cocopeat involves the following steps 1. Storage 2. Washing 3. Drying 4. Sieving 5. Compaction Cocopeat is obtained from the Coconut Husk during the fibre Extraction Utmost care is taken during processing to avoid contamination of material by weed seeds. The drying yards have compound walls as wind barrier on all the sides The drying and block making is done at optimum conditions to prevent particle damage and also to achieve maximum volume during Expansion

process The Cocopeat or Coir pith is collected from selected fibre extraction units and transported to the factory for storage. They are stored for over a period of time depending on the process. The material is then washed with water in the washing platforms to remove the soluble salts and tannins. Special treatment method are adopted for specific grades.
