Coir rope 4–6 mm is the grade we twist most of. It is fine enough to be worked by hand or fed through a machine, and it still holds tension outdoors for whole seasons, which is why it carries most of the agriculture, horticulture and handicraft volume leaving our line. This is the full specification, the ex-works price and what you actually receive in the container.

Who buys coir rope 4–6 mm
Nursery and horticulture suppliers who tie, train and trellis in volume and cannot leave synthetic cord in the soil at the end of a cycle. Landscaping contractors using it for staking and light slope work. Handicraft and homeware manufacturers weaving it into baskets, mats and furniture wrap, where the natural brown tone is the product rather than a fastening. Packaging converters replacing plastic twine on a natural-material brief.
Why this diameter rather than the heavy grade
At 4–6 mm the rope is still flexible enough to knot cleanly and to run through a weaving or baling machine without jamming. It carries plenty of load for plant support, bundling and craft work, and you buy fewer kilograms for the same running metres than you would at 6–8 mm. When the job is load bearing rather than tying, move up a grade.
How the diameter is actually held
Diameter tolerance is where most coir rope contracts go wrong: a rope sold as 4–6 mm that arrives at 3 mm in places will not hold on a trellis and will not run through a machine. Each production run is sampled with digital calipers against the spec before it is packed, and every coil goes over the scale, so the weight on the packing list is the weight in the container rather than an estimate. Fiber is dried and screened before twisting, which keeps the rope from arriving heavy with moisture or mouldy after a long sailing.
What ships with it
40ft HC container loads are routine here, with our own trucks to the port and our own loading crew. You receive stuffing photos and container numbers before the doors close, plus the full export document set: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin, and fumigation and phytosanitary certificates where your country requires them.
Order Coir rope 4–6 mm
Coir rope 4–6 mm ships by the 40ft HC container from Indonesia, ex-works from USD 0.56 per kilogram, with FOB Surabaya or Jakarta and CIF quoted against your volume and destination port. Typical lead time is 2 to 4 weeks from a confirmed order, and faster when running stock covers the quantity. Cut samples of both diameters are free; you cover the courier.

Frequently asked questions
How much does coir rope 4–6 mm cost wholesale?
From USD 0.56 per kilogram ex-works at our production site in Indonesia. FOB Surabaya or Jakarta and CIF to your port are quoted once we know your volume and destination, with inland trucking, stuffing and documents included.
What is the minimum order quantity?
One 40ft HC container is the standard export lot. Smaller trial orders are consolidated, so tell us your volume and destination port and we will confirm what is workable.
Is 4–6 mm coir rope biodegradable?
Yes. It is 100% coconut fiber with no synthetic core, so it breaks down on site into the soil. There is nothing to collect afterwards and no disposal line in the project budget.
Can I get a sample before ordering?
Yes. We send a cut sample of both 4–6 mm and 6–8 mm so you can verify twist, diameter and fiber quality before committing. Sample material is free and you cover the courier.
How is the rope packed?
Standard packing is coils, each weighed and labelled. Coil weight and bundling can be adjusted to what your line or warehouse handles.
