Import Coco Peat — Buy in Bulk from Supplier in Sri Lanka

Sapphire Shipping Pvt. Ltd. offers coco peat in multiple compressed formats, including 5 kg blocks, 25 kg bales, and 650 g briquettes. The material is derived from coconut husks, processed to remove impurities and achieve a near-neutral pH, which allows for immediate use in most growing applications. The high compression ratio reduces storage and transport volume, expanding up to 10 to 15 times its compressed size when hydrated.

The substrate’s high fibre content, typically 30 to 40 percent lignin and cellulose, improves soil structure and water retention while resisting decomposition. Standard moisture retention for expanded coco peat is 70 to 80 percent by volume, which helps reduce irrigation frequency in arid climates. It is also naturally resistant to pests and diseases, making it a low-maintenance option for organic farming systems.

This coco peat is widely adopted in commercial agriculture for soil conditioning, particularly in regions with sandy or clay-heavy soils. Nurseries and hydroponic growers use it for its sterility and consistency, while landscapers value its ease of handling and environmental benefits. Sapphire Shipping Pvt. Ltd. provides flexible packaging and can adjust formulations to meet specific buyer needs.
