Coir manufacturers across Kovai district reduce production due to rise in coconut husk prices, shortage of labour

- M SARAVANAN @Coimbatore

COIR units in the district have scaled down operations due to shortage of raw material coupled with unavailability of labourers. Industry operators claimed that they have reduced the operations to one shift from two shifts per day.

They also pointed out there is a significant rise in the price of coconut husk, the raw material, following the decline in coconut output since mid-2023. Two years ago, the price of coconut husk stood at 20 paise per coconut. Now it has increased up to ₹2.75. Operators said that there is a high demand in getting coconut husks to produce coir pith, coir fibre materials etc.
