Clothes made from coconuts

The coconut tree is known as the “Tree of Life” this is because it is the one thing that can provide all a human needs, drink, food and a fabric which can be made into clothes, rope and anything else which is needed to survive.

Cocona makes use of the tree of life to produce a range of quality clothing, which is said will dry much quicker than any other material, like polyester. The material also uses less energy in the manufacturing process, so could the coconut tree be one of the greenest trees around?
