Advantage of Use of Jute Goods:

Under stress jute extends only 0.5% to its stable form and so gives wonderful dimensional stability.
The hairy surface of jute fabric gives it a capacity to grip any surface it comes in contact with. They can, for this reason, be stacked high and wide without any risk of slippage.
The ignition temperature of jute is 193°c. It thus remains very stable up to near ignition point. Even at boiling temperature, its intact physical properties guard it from undergoing possible distortion.
Jute being hygroscopic and auriferous permits normal breathing and humidity to the contents and so ensures their storage without deterioration.
Hooks may be used freely and easily on jute products during handling as its innate properties cover up the pierced holes immediately after. It thus prevents seepage loss of contents during transportation and allows itself to be re-used over and again
Jute being natural is biodegradable. It does not plug the natural pore of the earth soil and surface.
When burned, it emits the same fume as a burning wood as we know, is nothing dangerous.
It has no adverse effect on human body and the mother nature as a whole.
Jute is a wonderful, sustainable, tough material
* Jute is 100% biodegradable
* Jute is durable and has a life span comparable to 1000 plastic bags
* Jute is a natural plant fibre that is a renewable and sustainable resource
* No toxic gases of harmful emissions are created in the production of jute bags
* Jute plants consume CO2 - the main cause of the greenhouse effect
* The Jute industry provides income for an estimated five million people in India and Bangladesh
Trade Aid sell a wide range of jute bags. This is one of their most popular. Please contact them for other types of bag, size details, prices etc.
Biological efficiency of jute:
- Jute is predominantly a rainfed annual crop harvested at least once a year.
- Jute as a fibre crop is a fast-growing one that takes only 4 to 5 months to mature.
- Unlike jute, the production of the fastest growing wood plant necessitates at least 10 to 14 years from plantation to harvest, and yields only 8 to 12 MT per hectare per annum.
- This means the biological efficiency of JUTE is much higher than that of wood plants, and hence the usage of jute in place of wood to make paper pulp will reduce the cost of production to a large extent.
It will also reduce the necessity of cutting down of trees, i.e. deforestation
