Millions of coconut husks are thrown away every day in Indonesia. In a little workshop on Java Island, our team takes these discarded husks and turns them into eco-friendly products under the TanoCoco brand. What many people see as agricultural waste, we see as an opportunity to create something meaningful.
Nothing goes unused from a coconut waste products. Our cocopeat becomes high-quality cocopeat blocks for horticulture, and the coconut fiber is processed into fiber products and mattresses. The leftover fibers are handcrafted into biodegradable coconut fiber pots, offering a sustainable alternative to plastic nursery pots.
As more people look for eco-friendly products, businesses are discovering new coconut waste uses and helping create a circular economy. Even though our production process uses simple machinery combined with careful hand-finishing, it creates opportunities for local communities, including school dropouts and housewives seeking extra income for their families.
For us, sustainability is more than an environmental commitment. It’s also about creating value from waste, supporting rural livelihoods, and promoting a circular economy in the coconut industry.
A greener future doesn’t always begin with large factories or advanced technology. Sometimes, it starts with a small workshop, dedicated people, and the belief that waste can become a valuable resource.
As a coconut waste business, TanoCoco is proud to be part of that journey, and we welcome importers, nurseries, distributors, social impact investors, and business partners worldwide who share the same vision of building a more sustainable future.
From Nature. Back to Nature.
One of our best-selling products is the Coco Coir Pot. What makes the coco coir pot interesting isn’t just its function as a plant container, but how something once seen as waste, like coconut husk, is given new value and returned to nature in a useful form. Every pot that comes out of the press is a small part of that cycle.
