Import Coco Peat — Buy in Bulk from Supplier in India

Coco Peat from Arc international is a horticultural substrate derived from the fibrous husk of coconuts, processed to remove salts and lignin for agricultural use. It has a moisture retention capacity of 8 to 10 times its dry weight, a pH range of 5.5 to 6.8, and an EC value below 1.0 dS/m, as confirmed by the supplier's product data. The material is compressed into blocks or bricks for transport, expanding upon hydration to form a loose, fibrous medium suitable for soil blending.

This product is typically graded as coarse, medium, or fine based on particle size distribution, with Arc international supplying the medium grade as standard. It contains less than 5% fine dust and under 2% foreign matter by weight, consistent with industry standards for horticultural coco substrates. Unlike raw coconut fiber, this material is washed and buffered to reduce sodium and potassium content, making it suitable for sensitive crops such as strawberries and orchids. It is free from added fertilizers or wetting agents.

Coco Peat is primarily used in greenhouse nurseries, hydroponic systems, and premium potting mixes for ornamental and vegetable crops. Buyers include commercial horticulturists in the Middle East, Europe, and North America who require consistent, pathogen-free growing media. The product is shipped in 50 kg polypropylene bags with inner liners, packed on pallets. Trade terms are FOB Mumbai or CIF upon request, with bulk orders accepted for containerized shipment.
