INTRODUCTION
Jute fibre is eco friendly like jute fibre. The
technology of Jute fibre extraction has been developed in South India where in a good
number of Jute fibre extraction units have been running very successfully. Some firms
are exporting the Jute fibre products. Jute growing states of N.E.Region has adopted the
technology from South and started production of Jute fibre and fabric. This can create a
lot of employment opportunities for almost all age groups.
MAMARKET POTENTIAL
The Jute fibre is being used for weaving attractive pieces
of clothes, rugs, sarees etc. Besides, it is also being used to produce a variety of items
such as hats, photo frames, trinket boxes, gift bags, picture frames, hand bags, belts,
baskets and sandals etc. Dresses woven out of natural fibres are in great demand inside
and outside India.

LOCATION
Jute growing areas in Kerala – Palakkad(Attappadi, Mannarkkad), Kottayam,
Kozhikkode
PROCESS
Jute Fibre Processing and Weaving :
The extraction of the natural fibre from the plant required certain care to avoid
damage. In the present experiments, initially the Jute plant sections were cut
from the main stem of the plant and then rolled lightly to remove the excess
moisture. Impurities in the rolled fibres such as pigments, broken fibres,
coating of cellulose etc. were removed manually by menas of comb, and then
the fibres were cleaned and dried.This mechanical and manual extraction of
Jute fibres was tedious, time consuming, and caused damage to the fibre.
Consequently, this type of technique cannot be recommended for industrial
application. A special machine was designed and developed for the extraction
of Jute fibres in a mechanically automated manner. It consisted mainly of two
horizontal beams whereby a carriage with an attached and specially designed
comb, could move back and forth. The fibre extraction using this technique
could be performed simply by placing a cleaned part of the Jute stem on the
fixed platform of the machine, and clamped at the ends by jaws. This
eliminated relative movement of the stem and avoided premature breakage of
the fibres. This was followed by cleaning and drying of the fibres in a chamber
at 20oC for three hours. This fibres were then labeled and ready for lamination
process.After extraction of fibre, weaving is done in the looms as per normal
process like any other material.
