Applications:

  • Decentralised wastewater: Filtration pads for septic biofilters and package treatment plants (residential & commercial)

  • Municipal treatment: Pre-filter media for primary sediment removal in municipal wastewater facilities

  • Industrial effluent: Solids capture for food processing, textile, and manufacturing discharge streams

  • Trickling filters: Random pack coir media replacing plastic bio-media in fixed-film treatment systems

  • Aquaculture: Suspended solids and organic matter filtration in recirculating fish farm systems

Advantages of Coir:

  • Higher solids loading: Open fibre network designed for greater solids holding capacity before change-out vs synthetic media that binds quickly under high-TSS streams.

  • Stable hydraulic flow: Void structure maintains consistent flow under hydraulic load, with slower headloss rise than PP/PE media.

  • Biofiltration compatible: Natural fibre surface supports beneficial microbial attachment for biological treatment stages.

  • Zero microplastic shedding: No synthetic polymer leaching into treated effluent. Eliminates a growing compliance and ESG risk.

  • Simplified end-of-life: Spent coir media is non-hazardous industrial waste. Can be directed to biomass energy recovery where local regulations permit, avoiding the hazardous waste classification that some synthetic media carry.

  • Site-tuneable: Density, thickness, and layering are engineered per site based on pilot data, not one-size-fits-all.
