Jute
Jute is one of the cheapest natural fibers and second to cotton
one of the most important ones.
Jute has ecological adaptability - it has good tolerance to
salinity and water stress and is resistant to climate extremes,
pests and diseases.
Jute is not subjected to the same industrial processes which are
applied to cotton - although water is used in the weaving process
to dampen the fabric, it is only sprinkled, where as cotton is
washed, boiled and bleached. Thus Jute is the most environmentally
friendly fiber starting from seed to fiber.
