Yarn; of coir

HS code 530810 covers the trade of yarn made from coir, a natural fiber extracted from the husk of coconuts. Coir yarn is a versatile and durable material with a wide range of applications, making it an important commodity in the global textile and manufacturing industries. As a renewable and biodegradable resource, coir yarn production plays a significant role in the circular economy, contributing to sustainable development across various sectors.

The production of coir yarn typically involves a multi-step process. First, the coconut husks are soaked in water to soften the fibers. The fibers are then extracted, cleaned, and sorted by length and thickness. Next, the fibers are spun into yarn using traditional spinning techniques or modern machinery. The resulting coir yarn can be further processed, such as by dyeing or twisting, to meet specific product requirements.

The primary input for coir yarn production is the raw coconut husk, which is a byproduct of the coconut industry. In addition to the raw material, the industry requires various tools and equipment, such as soaking tanks, fiber extraction machines, and spinning machines. Skilled labor is also an essential input, as the production process often involves manual techniques and specialized knowledge.
