Cocopeat Block
Coco peat block or coco block is a natural fiber made from coconut coir. It is a 100% natural growing medium for plants, made from the remaining powder from the processing of coconut coir decomposition. It is pre-washed, machine-dried, sifted, and made free of grit and other contaminants. ESE produces cocopeat block 5 kg with modern machine. On the other hand, we provide coco peat blocks weighing 2.5 kg, brick and slab shapes. This cocopeat block is the best price and best export quality product.
Here’s More to Know!
One of the benefits of coco blocks is their ability to hold up to eight times its weight in water, which helps to keep plants hydrated even in dry conditions. Another benefit is their sustainability, as they are made from the waste material of coconut processing and can be composted after use.

What is Cocopeat block made of?
Cocopeat block, also known as coco block, are made from the fibrous material found between the husk and the outer shell of a coconut or coconut husk. This material, known as coconut coir or cocopeat, is a natural byproduct of the coconut industry.
What is the use of cocopeat blocks?
Coco peat blocks can be used as planting media and soil amendments to increase the ability to absorb water and nutrients. Here are some common uses of cocopeat blocks:
- Growing Medium: Cocopeat blocks are frequently used as a growing medium for a variety of plants.
- Seed Starting: Cocopeat provides a sterile and moisture-retentive environment that promotes seed germination and early seedling growth.
- Soil Amendment: It enhances soil aeration and water-holding capacity, making it particularly useful in sandy or heavy clay soils.
- Mulching: It helps conserve soil moisture by reducing evaporation and suppressing weed growth.
- Erosion Control: It can be placed on slopes and areas prone to erosion to stabilize the soil and prevent the loss of topsoil during heavy rainfall.
- Hydroponics: It provides a stable base for plant roots while allowing for efficient nutrient uptake and oxygenation.
- Animal Bedding: It provides a comfortable, moisture-absorbing surface for these pets.
- Composting: It helps absorb excess moisture and provides a source of carbon, balancing the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio in the compost.
How do I use the cocopeat block?
To use a cocopeat block, add water to the cocopeat block and wait for it to degrade and spread. Then, aerate it so that it can be used as sowing material. Here are some common steps for using cocopeat block:
- Prepare the Container: Start by selecting a container or bucket that is large enough to hold the cocopeat block.
- Place the Cocopeat Block: Put the cocopeat block into the container. It will be hard and compacted initially, resembling a brick.
- Add Water: Begin adding water to the container. The amount of water you’ll need depends on the size of the cocopeat block.
- Wait for Expansion: As you add water, the cocopeat block will gradually start to absorb the moisture and expand.
- Fluff and Mix: Once the cocopeat block has fully expanded and softened, fluff it up with your hands to break apart any clumps.
