About Jute
Jute production is one of the oldest industries in India and is traditionally used for packaging. Jute is one of the strongest of all natural fibres available today; it also has some heat and fire resistance. It is a long, soft, shiny vegetable fibre that can be spun into strong threads; the threads are then turned into material (jute fabrics are also called hessian cloth). The biodegradable features of jute are becoming increasingly important to consumers and manufacturers alike. Jute is a natural fiber (a vegetable fiber composed of cellulose), like all natural fibers, jute is totally biodegradable. When discarded, jute decomposes putting valuable nutrients back into the soil. As the jute stem is cut during harvesting a major portion of the root remains within the soil. This, in due course, decomposes and disappears into the soil. Through this process of bio-degradation it enriches the soil by way of providing natural manure for other subsequent crops to be grown there. Jute fiber strands or 'jutes' are crafted into strong re-usable bags ideas for shopping and many other activities. A few facts about Jute production and the jute industry:o Jute industry supports an estimated 5 million people in the poorest regions on earth.
o One hectare of Jute plants consumes over 15 tonnes of CO2, several times higher than trees.
o Jute is environmentally friendly - non-pollutant.
