FIBER EXTRACTION:

Banana Fiber is extracted from Banana tree bark. The trunk is peeled. Brown-green skin is thrown away
retaining the cleaner or white portion which will be processed into knotted fibers.

The fibers are extracted through hand extraction machine composed of either serrated or non serrated
knives. The peel is clamped between the wood plank and knife and hand-pulled through, removing the
resinous material. The extracted fibers are sun-dried which whitens the fiber.

Once dried, the fibers are ready for knotting. A bunch of fibers are mounted or clamped on a stick to
facilitate segregation.

Each fiber is separated according to fiber sizes and grouped accordingly. To knot the fiber, each fiber
is separated and knotted to the end of another fiber manually. The separation and knotting is repeated
until bunches of unknotted fibers are finished to form a long continuous strand. This fiber can now be
used for making various products.
