Coconut Tree products
Copra
Copra are the dried coconut nut kernels. These have always traditionally been dried out in the sun, completely naturally. They can also sometimes be dried in kilns and other air drying methods are used in different places in the world. It is copra that gives us coconut oil which is extracted from it.
· Coconut fibre/coir
a fibre surrounding the husk and contained within the outer shell of the coconut when it’s on the tree, is the coir which is useful for all sorts of things, from ropes to brushes to doormats, coconut fibre or coir doesn’t go to waste.
· Coconut charcoal and activated carbon
By burning the kernel, there is fuel. However, specifically, coconut charcoal is an excellent product of the coconut tree, coming from the husk when it is burned. Coconut charcoal is used in the beauty industry as well as in traditional medicine. It can be used for water filtration and draws out toxins.
· Coconut peat
When a coconut falls from the tree it is a large green orb. It’s only when you crack inside that you find the hairy husk. In amongst the husk fibre (or coir) is pith called coconut peat. Gardeners rave about it as it helps to improve soil and, with its naturally anti-fungal properties, it is great for all sorts of horticultural endeavours. Being 100% organic and naturally biodegradable it’s a great choice.
