What is Coco Peat?

Coco peat is a natural fiber made out of coconut husks, making it a renewable resource. Since its founding in 2016, Fjiro is helping turn what was once considered waste, into a fully sustainable and fair-trade product by partnering with local farmers in the Philippines. It is our mission to maintain sustainable and ethical choices while creating a product we’re proud of.
