Coir Ply
MADE FROM RENEWABLE NATURAL FIBRE
Coir Ply, Coir plywood, Bio wood, Coir particle board, Coir composite Board Panels can be made using coir as reinforcing material with or without plantation timber (veneers like rubber, bamboo, jute, glass) in between as a secondary reinforcement and then infused with polymeric matrix material like phenol, polyester, epoxy, etc., and then processed under controlled temperature and pressure.
The primary advantage of the coir composites is due to the coir, which is natural, eco-friendly and abundantly available material. The coir fiber being very strong and flexible can replace the glass fiber or can be hybridized in required ratio with the glass fiber.
The diversified uses of coir composites will save the tropical forests, increase rural employment opportunities and also promotes agriculture leading to sustainable development
1)coir ply has all the properties of phenol-bonded ply with the added stre ngth of fibre reinforced phenol bonding.
2) Manufacturing process gives it a natural, smooth, glossy finish on both sides. Can be used without surface treatment.
3) Can also be painted, polished or laminated. The board has the lowest consumption rating per square foot, on paints and varnishes.
4) Has both vertical and horizontal load bearing strengths. The best compression / strength ratios among phenol- bonded boards.
5) Can be form-cut in to virtually any shape, with minimum wastage and low labor costs. The board can also be nailed or screwed into place.
6) Has high degrees of surface abrasion resistance.
7) Does not flake-off dust as in ordinary particle boards and asbestos.
8) Resists contraction/ expansion due to temperature variations.
9) Does not absorb water or moisture.
10) Termite / insect resistant. Also has a high fire retardant property.
Standard board sizes 2.4m x 1.2m
Thickness options - 4mm, 6 mm, 8mm, 12mm, 18mm and 19mm.
1) Door panels
2) Furniture
