With its abundant coconut plantations, Cocopeat Block 650gr from Indonesia is a compact, lightweight, and high-performance organic growing medium that’s gaining strong demand in global markets such as hydroponics, horticulture, floriculture, and organic farming.
1. Natural Raw Material: Coconut Husk from Local Farms
Cocopeat is derived from the mesocarp (husk) of mature coconuts—typically a by-product of coconut processing like desiccated coconut and virgin coconut oil.
- Waste Utilization: Helps reduce agricultural waste and promotes a circular economy.
- Sustainable Sourcing: Husk is collected from coconut industries across Indonesia.
- Pre-Screening: Raw material is inspected to ensure it’s free of contaminants and excess fibers.
2. Clean and Standardized Production Process
A. Crushing & Fiber Separation
Mechanical decorticating machines crush the husks and separate long coir fibers from the cocopeat. Factories use these fibers for brushes and ropes, while they reserve the finer cocopeat for agricultural use.
B. Washing & Leaching
Workers soak and rinse the raw cocopeat several times with clean water to remove salt and reduce electrical conductivity (EC) to below 0.5 mS/cm. The production facilities recycle the used water using eco-friendly systems.
C. Drying
The team dries the cocopeat under the sun or with mechanical dryers until the moisture content drops below 15%. This step prevents microbial growth and helps extend the product’s shelf life.
D. Sieving & Blending
Operators sieve the dried cocopeat to remove dust and oversized particles. Then, they blend the product based on customer requirements—adjusting particle size, fiber content, and pH level for optimal performance
3. Compression & Packaging
Manufacturers compress the cocopeat into ±650-gram blocks using hydraulic or screw-press machines. Each block expands to 6–8 liters when hydrated.
Packaging options include:
- Shrink wrap for retail use
- Dual plastic wrap or branded paper sleeves for exports
- Master cartons or bulk bales depending on volume
