Coir Flooring

cellulose fibres. The fibres are spun by hand rather than by a machine.

Coir can be used as carpets, rugs and mats, which are very strong and tightly woven.
Coir carpets can be installed throughout the house as with traditional carpets. A local dealer should be consulted to discuss areas.

Advantages of Using Coir Flooring
  • Coir is a natural product with a rustic look, it is very minimally processed - unlike synthetic floor coverings which often have many chemicals added to create particular colours and effects. These chemicals host the perfect conditions for rapid wear, whereas coir retains its inherent strength and durability.
  • Coir provides both heat insulation, reducing energy bills and noise pollution.
  • Coir is not susceptible to mildew and damp. Thus, coir can become water-logged with no perceptible bad effects, although prolonged periods of soaking will result in damp water marks and can also result in mould.
  • Coir fade slightly when exposed to strong sunlight - similar to timber - but the mellower golden hues are often more attractive and more liked than the original.
  • Coir absorbs the transmission of sound, providing great noise insulation.
  • Coir is resistant to insects, in particular, carpet moth damage, as the natural oils inherent in the fibres repel insects.
  • Coir is easy to maintain. Regular vacuuming is recommended.
  • Coir has hydroscopic properties, ie., absorbs moisture from the air and therefore helps to balance the atmosphere of a room, taking in and releasing moisture depending on the conditions.
  • Coir does not harbour bacteria, it seems to be particularly good for asthmatic or allergic conditions.
  • Coir provides a slip-resistance, non-skid surface which helps to prevent accidents.
  • Most of all, for those seeking an environmentally-responsible choice for their flooring, coir is 100% biodegradable. Its natural fibres are processed in an ecologically-sound manner and are of free of pollutants. It is also a completely sustainable resource.
Disadvantages of Coir Flooring
  • Coir will expand and contract with higher and lower humidity. This must be accounted for when laying coir flooring and also in considering the structure and dimensions of a room, as well as its usage.
  • Coir is very durable, however if exposed to strong sunlight, in conditions of heat and low humidity, the fibres can become brittle and thus weaken.
  • Coir cannot be used outdoors.
Coir is an ecologically-friendly solution for busy spaces - whether it is a home with pets and children or a more commercial setting. Its unique properties mean that it is more than able to withstand the demands of modern life while its sustainable growing cycle means that with care, coir flooring can be made from the same coconut tree for years and years to come.
