JUST JUTE© extra information
PONY JUST JUTE© can lead to a sustainable and efficient fight against plastic consumption, with the added benefit of reducing carbon dioxide emissions, lowering our carbon footprints, and finding new and alternative resources to fight climate change. As the method used for processing Jute has barely changed in a century, the cases are made with no chemicals and are completely biodegradable.
Jute plants grow in Bengal, India. The jute plant has an extremely low carbon footprint and is an amazing crop for the environment as the plants are rain fed and require no pesticides, or fertilisers, or irrigation.
After separating out the fiber from the plant, the fibers are dried in the sun. Jute stores a high amount of carbon and releases large quantities of oxygen into the air, even more than some trees do!
Bundles of dry jute are sent to textile factories and jute weaving mills. Jute weaving is as old as the ancient civilization of the Indus Valley and is mentioned in Sanskrit texts, the world’s oldest language recorded.
