The immature husks are kept in a water-filled pit for six months. During this time, micro organisms break down the plant tissues surrounding the fibres and loosen them - a process known as retting. Then long fibres are separated by milling process and subsequently dried and cleaned.

The colour difference, white coir or brown coir, depends upon the conditions of the husks used, the methods of extraction, the physical properties and the uses. Coir obtained from fresh green coconut is generally known as white fibre. It is finer than the brown fibre. The brown fibres are the outcome of seasoned coconuts which have lost their green colour (>12 months) in the process. Both types of fibre are widely used and each has its own distinct types of applications.

The main usage of white fibre & brown fibre
1. For car seats or mattress stuffing
2. In geo-textile manufacture, used for bank stabilization and soil re- vegetation
