USING NATURAL COIR ROPE TO PROTECT SEA ENVIROMENT

Why coir rope can be used to protect sea environment:

  1. Natural material:

    COIR ROPE

    • Made from the fibrous husk (coir) of coconuts.

    • 100% natural, biodegradable, and renewable.

  2. Key Properties for Water:

    • High Buoyancy Initially: Floats when dry/new, then slowly waterlogs.

    • Excellent Saltwater Resistance: Naturally durable in marine environments due to high lignin content.

    • Biodegradability: Breaks down naturally over time (months to a few years), avoiding plastic pollution.

    • Permeability: Allows water flow, reducing scour and supporting sediment accumulation.

    • Rough Texture: Provides surface area for beneficial biofilm, algae, and invertebrate colonization, enhancing habitat.

    • Eco-Friendly: Ideal for projects prioritizing environmental sustainability and habitat creation.

    • Erosion Control: Widely used in “bioengineering” for bank/shoreline stabilization (e.g., coir logs, rolls, mesh, fascines). Traps sediment while allowing plant roots to establish.

    • Habitat Enhancement: Creates microhabitats for aquatic organisms on its surface.

    • Low Environmental Impact: Minimal leaching (mostly harmless tannins, initially staining water brown).

    • Good Tensile Strength (Initially): Suitable for light-to-medium duty applications.

    • Limited Lifespan: Degrades faster in water than synthetics (typically 2-5 years, faster in turbulent water or UV exposure). Not permanent.

    • Lower Strength vs. Synthetics: Not suitable for heavy loads, large vessel mooring, or high-tension applications.

  5. Common Aquatic Applications:

    • Bank/Shoreline Stabilization: Coir logs, rolls (geotextiles), fascines (bundles), wattles.

    • Habitat Restoration Projects: Creating reef-like structures, anchoring aquatic plants.

    • Aquaculture: Light-duty net mending, securing floats/cages (where biodegradability is acceptable).

    • Mooring: Temporary or light-duty mooring for small boats/kayaks (knowing it will degrade).

    • Erosion Control Blankets/Mats: Underwater or intertidal zones.

6. Comparison between coir rope and normal rope

Feature Super Twisted Coir Rope Synthetic Ropes
Biodegradability 100% biodegradable Non-biodegradable, pollutes oceans
Texture Rough surface enhances spat adhesion Smooth, less effective for attachment
Lifespan 12+ months in seawater Longer but environmentally harmful
Cost Affordable, supports local economies Higher long-term environmental costs

 Vietnam has a significant coconut industry, particularly in provinces like Bến Tre, Trà Vinh, and the Mekong Delta region, making it a major producer and exporter of coir products, including coir rope. COCO HITECH is proud to be the top coir rope manufacturer and producer in Viet Nam. At COCO HITECH, we delivered wide range of coir rope that can be used for aquatic: coir rope 12mm-14mm, coir rope 16mm-18mm, coir rope 20mm-22mm, coir rope 28mm-30mm.
