See every manufacturing stepScroll to follow the process
01
Raw husk
Coconut husks and coir raw materials are collected and prepared for processing, forming the foundation of the coco peat production process.
02
Pith separation
Raw material is processed to separate coir fibres from coco peat pith and other coarse components.
03
Washing bed
For the Low EC grade, pith is washed on our own washing beds to bring the EC down before it moves on.
04
Drying
Pith is spread across the open yard and dried as required before screening.
05
Sieving
The material is screened to the required particle size, 6 mm, 8 mm or unsieved, separating unwanted coarse material.
06
Block compression
Prepared coco peat is pressed at 5:1 into 5 kg blocks of 30 × 30 × 10 cm, to the grade and expansion specification.
07
Packing & dispatch
Finished blocks are checked against the specification, then loose-stuffed into the container for dispatch to commercial buyers.
