Buy Sisal Fiber in Tanzania

You can now buy Sisal Fiber in Tanzania for use in construction and other applications. Sisal Fiber comes from the Sisal Plant. Harvesting is done by hand where-after the leaves are transported to a central factory. Fibre is extracted through a process known as decortication, where leaves are crushed, beaten, and brushed away by a rotating wheel set with blunt knives, so that only fibres remain. Extracted fibres are extensively washed during decortication. The fibre is then sun-dried. Dry fibres are machine combed and sorted into various grades and baled for export. Proper drying is important as fibre quality depends largely on moisture content.

Uses of Sisal Fiber

Sisal can be used for a wide variety of things. Although sisal fibre is not more durable than some other fibres, it’s strength and length make it a popular choice. Sisal is used commonly in the shipping industry for mooring small craft, lashing, and handling cargo. Apart from rope, twine and general cordage sisal is used in buffing cloth, carpets, dartboards, mattresses, handicrafts and specialty paper. It is also surprisingly used as the fibre core of the steel wire cables of elevators, being used for lubrication and flexibility purposes. Traditionally sisal was the leading material for agricultural twine or baler twine. Although this has now been overtaken by polypropylene.
