Healthy growth
Three different basic products can be obtained from the husk of the coconut, which we supply under the brand name Shakti Cocos®. Coir pith, coir crush and coir fibre. We can deliver our coconut products in any desired packaging.

Coir pith can be used as a pure substrate for almost all crops and under almost all circumstances. It has a high air content and promotes the growth of healthy roots.

Coir crush, also called coir chips, can be used as a pure substrate for a certain number of crops. In mixtures they provide a higher air content and improve water transport.

Coir fibres are used to improve water transport in mixtures. Drainage, capillary action and water distribution in the mixture are improved.

Coir must be processed for chemical stability. Shakti Cocos® has developed a unique, patented procedure for this, called Shakti Amla®. In addition to ensuring chemical stability, the pH of the coir is also lowered to the desired level. As a result, the plants have better root development, the uptake  of especially trace elements is improved, the production is increased quantitatively and qualitatively, and the plants are more resistant to a number of fungal infections.
