What Makes Storage “Environmentally Friendly”?

Eco-Friendly Materials.

Materials Used For Eco Friendly Storage

Jute is a long, soft, shiny vegetable fiber that can be spun into coarse, strong threads. It is primarily made from two species of plants. These are Corchorus capsularis and Corchorus olitorius and that is why jute is also called as burlap or hessian. Jute is also used as a raw material to make ropes and sacks. Jute is one of the few commercially viable natural fibers that can be grown in a somewhat moderate climate. The most common jute fabric is hessian cloth. Other than hessian cloth, jute is also used very often to make carpets, rugs, and even wall coverings. In India, over 70% of the jute production starts from the cultivation of jute seeds in Bengal, which covers both West Bengal and Bangladesh. Jute production has contributed to the prosperity of Bengal since ancient times.

Bamboo

Bamboo is a grass with a hard, woody, hollow stem and (especially in the tropical species) lateral branches. Most Bamboo species are native to the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Bamboo plants grow in clusters that form a clump. All the varieties of bamboos have effectively proved to control soil erosion. The bamboo plant is also grown mainly for the production of useful, versatile products, particularly in the construction industry.
