AWIN Cocohusk Chips

Cocohusk chips are uniformly cut and processed pieces of coconut husk that are extensively used as media for growing various plants in pots and plant beds and also as plant/tree mulch. The chips provide ample aeration and drainage, helping plants establish excellent roots. They also resist microbial growth and slumping/compacting thereby providing long usage life of upto five years.
