Jute has been around for thousands of years—it’s mentioned in ancient texts as early as 1500 BC. Jute is a great alternative to cotton because it’s cheaper and grows easily. Therefore, it is a sustainable choice that does not disrupt the climate or ecosystems where it’s grown. It’s the perfect eco-friendly solution for your green packaging needs. We have highlighted the top benefits of Jute.
Eco-friendly and Recyclable:
Jute is an eco-friendly and biodegradable material that offers a sustainable alternative to plastic and other synthetic materials. It is used as a sustainable packaging solution offering environmental benefits and reduces the carbon footprint of your business. Jute fabric and bag can be reused and recycled again and again to make the most out of it.
Cost-saving:
When it comes to sustainability, jute offers more than just an eco-friendly solution. Jute also saves money by reducing waste removal costs while increasing recycling rates.
Health benefits of Jute:
It also has a number of health benefits: Jute produces oxygen while growing, and the process of getting the fibers is the most natural way and does not harm the environment or the people working with it. It can be used as a natural alternative to cotton which reduces allergies. Jute is antibacterial so it won’t harbor bacteria like other fabrics do. Due to its natural oils and inherent structure, jute is also fire-resistant; while it may catch fire, it will not burn for very long. It can be dyed any color you want! With its natural color, jute can be printed on without additional dyes or chemicals—and if you want them in different colors, we can do that too! We’ll help you choose the right shade based on your brand’s identity and goals.
Harvesting benefits of Jute:
Pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers are not as necessary for growing the jute plant. There is a rapid turnover and a continuous supply of new fiber because the jute growing season lasts only about 100 days. According to studies, throughout the jute growth season, one hectare of jute plants can absorb up to 15 tons of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, and release up to 11 tons of oxygen. When crops are rotated after jute has been sown, it restores the nutrients in the soil and lowers the danger of pests and disease. The harvesting of jute makes our farmers happy!
