Coco peat or coco pith are one and the same product referred in different countries by two different names. This peat is a by product of coco fibre. In coco fibre extraction the so called pulp or covering of husk over the coconut is called the fibre. This fibre is used for many applications in various industrial products. While removing this covering or husk which contains the pith attached with the fibre we get two products namely the coir fibre and the coco peat or pith. These pith appears like saw dust. These coco peat are compressed into blocks called coco peat bricks, making it convenient for transporting to far off destinations by exporters.
