Jute, the ‘Golden fiber’ as commonly known, is the second most important fiber after cotton!! Because of its cheap pricing and eco-friendly attributes. Partially a textile fiber and partially a wood, it falls under the category of Ligno-cellulosic fiber.

 

As a trade the history of jute products can be traced back to the 17th century i.e. during the British rule. The Tatas, the Birlas, the Bajajs and the Mittals – the legendary business tycoons of India had as their first business, jute products, to be exported and imported. The largest producer of jute products in the world – and the honor goes to India.

 

High moisture absorption capacity, flexibility and drainage properties are the features characterizing jute as an eco-friendly fiber and so jute products are considered as ecologically acceptable by the environmentalists. Advantages enjoyed by jute products over other fibers are abundant availability and bio-degradable properties.

Bengal- the name conventionally attached to jute products. Since the ancient times the women folk of Bengal have been using jute products, basically for household storage. Today, Bengal is the chief manufacture of jute products in India.

 

For centuries jute has been associated with flexible packaging, specially sacks, shopping bags and coarse door mats. And that’s it – there ends the domain of jute products. Jute jewelries, jute apparels, jute wall hangings were out of human range of imagination then. But in today’s date multiple and versatile jute products are creating a global market, resurrecting after it lost to synthetic packaging during the 1970s.

 

In its ‘second coming’, the range of jute has increased manifold and it spread from the packaging industry to the fashion industry. Designer sarees, salwar-kameezes, jewelries and foot wears are the new incarnations of the traditional jute products. Jute-blended carpets and rugs, decorative wall-hangings and tapestries, garden pot hangings, decorative hand bags, bed spreads, cushion covers, shopping bags, etc, etc….the range of jute products is ever increasing and under continuous improvisation.

 

The Indian jute sector comprises organized jute industry as well as a large number of cottage units providing employment to thousands of people. They create a myriad of utilitarian products made of jute which reflect the traditional excellence of Indian craftsmanship.

 

The increasing popularity of the jute products is basically for its low cost which makes it easily accessible to the poor citizenry. The low price, however, never compromises with quality and fashion. The gorgeously embroidered jute apparels can make nice replicas of silk and can give the other fiber industries a run for money…..!!

The Indian Jute Industries Research Association (IJIRA) in association with Indian jute industry has recently developed food grade jute bags and cloth called Hydrocarbon free jute bags conforming to international standard specifications. These bags and cloth have a large demand in export markets for packing cocoa beans, coffee beans, shelled nuts and other food products.

 

Furniture is the latest forthcoming area in the domain of jute products. Decorative jute bags; jute slippers, shoes and non-reusable slip-ons; and jute wall hangings are gaining popularity world wide. Be it conserving the soil and environment or in applications like civil engineering or packaging and fashion industry, the time has come for this natural eco friendly fiber to take over with the ideal solutions for saving the modern world.

 

One of the most valuable natural resources of India, jute is a truly versatile fiber and that is the essence behind the popularity of jute products in the world scenario.

i have black lab pup, doesnt like midday sun, we walk early morning and late evening. midday she could use a shelter for sun and rain, some cool weather too. i want to make it eco friendly and use some of the ton of recycleable materials if possible..i already have some shingles from the neighbor, some wood 2×2’s and lots of plastics and such, by the end of summer when the landlord put s on new siding i plan to keep some of the old and make it more cold weather proof, she does not stay out all day she is our family too…. but when she is out i want to give her the best i can.. we have a very large fenced yard so lots of room to work in. we also have lots of patio stones. i had to remove all the pea gravel though since she was eating it.

When more people are eco-conscious, it is a hot trend that fashion goes green. Many eco materials are considered for clothing fabric instead of traditional cotton. Those natural resources include bamboo, corn, organic cotton, hemp, silk, even coconut shells. Three of them, bamboo, silk, and organic cotton, are discussed including both pros and cons.

Bamboo

Bamboo fabric has a good reputation from the benefit to both human and earth in the clothing industry. Bamboo fabric has a soft touch and a stronger fabric. Due the fabric’s structure, the fabric is very breathable to stay cool in the summer and warmer in the winter. Also, it can absorb 3 – 4 times more water than the traditional cotton fabric without sticking to your skin. It is very good for sports wear or casual wear. At the same time, the benefits of bamboo are abundant to the earth. It grows very fast to be ready for harvesting in four years. It does not require replanting because of the robust reproduction ability from its root networking. Moreover, bamboo naturally grows with no irritation, poisonous pesticides, and fertilizers.
However, the above pros are only part of the bamboo fabric life. The whole fabric process includes material planting and the process to make the plant into a fabric. Two ways are to process bamboo to make it into a fabric: mechanical or chemical. The mechanical way is by crushing the plant and then enzyme-breaking the fibre into a mushy mass so that the fibers can be mechanically combed out and spun into a yarn. This way is really eco-friendly process. Very little bamboo fabric is processed with this way because of intensive labor and higher cost. Most of bamboo fabric are made with the chemically manufacture process. The mushy mass to comb out the fibers is made through an intensive chemical cooking process. The chemical soaking and multiple bleaching processes gives some feel how green the bamboo fabric is.

Organic Cotton

In wiki, organic cotton is defined as cotton that is grown without pesticides from plants which are not genetically modified. The biological controls are implemented as an alternative to pesticides. The reduced chemical is also benefit for the air and water. Shoppers do not expose their skin to the chemical. Also, the eco-friendly cotton has a stronger, more durable fabric from the extra-long fibres.
The planting of organic cotton is at a developing stage and even experimental process. Also there is no standard third-party monitoring to guarantee the planting process.

Silk

Silk is well-known with lots of excellent features for a long time. It is a natural protein fiber so it is good for the person who has allergic skin. The production process is eco-friendly. Silk is the first choice in the fashion world for its smoothness and draping well feature.
The high price and special care is the obstacle for its popularity. Even with new technology of silk setting for washing machine, there is no way to try the silk in your dryer.

Buy or not, which one to buy – that is your own choice. At least, you know it before you buy.
