We supply husk chips in custom and random sizes with tailored packaging, ensuring quality and consistency.
JSV coir husk chips, or coco chips, are small, shredded pieces of coconut husks used as a sustainable alternative to traditional soil. They are made by cutting coconut husks into uniform pieces, washing them to remove salts and excess tannins, and then drying them for optimal use. Coir husk chips are ideal for orchids, succulents, adeniums, cacti, anthuriums, and other plants that thrive in well-aerated and well-drained soils, providing excellent moisture retention and aeration.
