About GPMR Products - Coco Peat & Coir Pith Supplier in India

India hosts GPMR Products, which currently lists 18 active items across the coir and coco‑peat families. The catalogue includes products such as Coco Fibers (HS 5305.10), Coco Bristol Fibers (HS 1401.20), Coir Yarn (HS 5308.10) and several items recorded without a specific HS code, illustrating the breadth of natural coconut‑based material offerings. Each entry references the raw material - primarily natural coconut husk or processed coir - and the supplier groups them under categories like Coco Peat & Coir Pith, Coir Fiber, Ropes, Twines and Garden Articles.

The product set spans raw fibers, processed ropes, woven mats, geo‑textiles, yarn, and a range of peat blocks distinguished by electrical conductivity (high EC and low EC). Grow Bags and small‑size grow bags are also listed, together with assorted garden articles and flower pots. The catalogue reflects typical Indian coir processing outputs, with multiple entries for similar items (e.g., Coco Peat Block, Cocopeat Low EC) that differ in specifications such as EC level or packaging size.

Product Range and Specialties of GPMR Products

The catalogue covers natural coconut fibers (5305.10 and 5305.19), brown coir fibers used for Bristol cloth (HS 1401.20), and 100 % coir yarn (HS 5308.10). In the global market, coir fibers are graded by length (30‑70 mm), tensile strength (30‑45 MPa) and moisture content (35‑45 %). Peat blocks are typically classified by electrical conductivity: low EC < 0.5 mS cm⁻¹ for seedling propagation and high EC > 1.0 mS cm⁻¹ for ornamental crops. Standard packaging includes 20‑ft containers with bulk bags of 1 tonne or 25 kg bags for retail use. Buyers also encounter coir geo‑textiles with tear resistance ≥ 150 N cm⁻¹ and water‑permeability values around 200 L h⁻¹ m⁻².

Trade and Export Information - GPMR Products

India is a major exporter of coir and coco‑peat, supplying Southeast Asian horticulture, Middle‑Eastern landscaping projects and European container‑grown vegetable sectors. The relevant HS chapters are 53 (vegetable fibers) and 14 (plaiting materials), which trigger phytosanitary certification and often require an ISO 9001 quality‑management system audit for bulk shipments. Typical export logistics involve FOB or CIF terms, with products packed in polypropylene‑lined bulk bags or wooden crates to protect moisture content during sea transit. Destination ports frequently request a Certificate of Origin, a Phytosanitary Certificate and, where applicable, compliance with EU REACH for organic residues.

Sourcing from GPMR Products - Buyer Guidance

Buyers should request a material data sheet that lists fiber length distribution, tensile strength, moisture level and EC values for peat blocks. A recent laboratory test report confirming compliance with ISO 9001, BIS standards for coir products, and a phytosanitary certificate are standard documents before finalizing an order. Verify that the HS code on the commercial invoice matches the product (e.g., 5305.10 for raw coco fibers) and confirm packaging dimensions to ensure container‑load optimization.

What HS codes apply to the coir products offered by GPMR Products?

The catalogue lists HS 5305.10 for raw coco fibers, HS 5305.19 for processed coco fiber, HS 1401.20 for brown coir Bristol fibers and HS 5308.10 for coir yarn. Items without a listed code fall under the broader 5305 or 5308 families depending on fiber form.

Which quality parameters are typical for coco peat blocks?

Coco peat blocks are usually graded by electrical conductivity (EC), with low‑EC variants below 0.5 mS cm⁻¹ and high‑EC variants above 1.0 mS cm⁻¹. Moisture content is commonly 35‑45 % and pH ranges from 5.5 to 6.5.

Are phytosanitary certificates required for importing coir rope?

Yes, most importing countries require a phytosanitary certificate for natural fiber products to confirm they are free of pests and soil contaminants. The certificate should reference the HS code (e.g., 5305.10) and the country of origin, India.

What packaging formats are used for bulk coir yarn shipments?

Bulk coir yarn is typically packed in 25 kg polypropylene‑lined bags or in 1‑tonne bulk bags for container loads. The packaging is designed to preserve fiber tensile strength and prevent moisture ingress.

Which certifications should a buyer verify before purchasing geo‑textiles?

Buyers should ask for ISO 9001 compliance, any relevant BIS certification for coir products, and test reports showing tear resistance (≥ 150 N cm⁻¹) and water‑permeability values. A phytosanitary certificate is also standard for natural fiber textiles.

What are common lead times for a full container load of coir mats?

Suppliers in India generally quote a lead time of 30‑45 days from order confirmation to shipment for a 20‑ft container of coir mats, assuming standard packaging and no custom processing.

How can I request a sample of the high‑EC coco peat block?

Contact the supplier to arrange a 5‑kg sample, specifying the desired EC level (high > 1.0 mS cm⁻¹). The sample should be accompanied by a test report covering EC, moisture, pH and any residual pesticide analysis.

What documentation is needed for customs clearance of coir rope?

Customs typically requires a commercial invoice with the correct HS code (5305.10 or 5305.19), a Certificate of Origin, a phytosanitary certificate, and any applicable ISO or BIS compliance certificates.
