Abstract

After briefly elaborating the concept of environmental goods and its importance for sustenance of life, a strong argument is forwarded for including selected jute and coir products in this category.

The production processes and critical properties of three types of geotextiles, three types of agrotextile and of a packaging textile developed from jute and coir fibres and based on concept of eco-friendliness have been briefly described, indicating the tremendous untapped potential of these materials.
