Jute is a long, soft, shiny fiber that can be spun into coarse, strong threads. It is one of the cheapest natural fibers and is second only to cotton in amount produced and variety of uses. Jute fibers are composed primarily of the plant materials cellulose, lignin, and pectin. Both the fiber and the plant from which it comes are commonly called jute. It belongs to the basswood family, Tiliaceae, genus Corchorus.
Jute is used chiefly to make cloth for wrapping bales of raw cotton and to make gunny sacks and gunny cloth. The fibers are also woven into curtains, chair coverings, carpets, and burlap. Used alone or blended with other types of fibers, jute becomes twine and rope.
Jute, a rainy season crop, grows best in warm, humid climates. About four months after planting, harvesting The stalks are tied into bundles and steeped (soaked) to soften the tissues so the fibers can be separated. The fibers are then stripped from the stalks in long strands and washed in clear, running water. They are hung up or spread on thatched roofs to dry. After two or three days of drying, the fibers are tied into bundles, graded and then sent to manufacturers. |

These shipments are delivered through your doorway. Because home furnishings, rugs, lamps and other large items are heavier and bulkier than most, shipping costs are higher.
