Palm fiber is the thin, usually thread-like bark of numerous palm species, which assists the further transport of nutrients across the entire plant in the living plant and is therefore used industrially as a classic textile fiber. In order to gain and utilize palm fibers, these are separated after precipitation and shelling of the tree and thereafter further processed manually or mechanically. First, this is done soaking the elongated fibers, this can be woven or pressed together. Countless palm species have a fibrous basic structure in their trunk, but not all fibers are equally suitable for industrial processing. The best-known palm fibers are rattan and rattan, which are obtained from the Southeast Asian rattan palm, as well as coconut fiber, which comes only partially from the trees and mostly from the surfaces of coconuts. While the latter are more commonly used for weaving, they are more likely to be used in make-up chairs, tables and various wickerworks.
