We are Ecolfibras

What we do

We develop 100% natural, renewable and eco friendly coconut husk products for the agricultural, livestock, mattress manufacturing and automobile industries.

We care for the environment and contribute to the well-being of hundreds of families located in Uraba.

Strategic location


We are located in San Juan de Uraba, Colombia, on the Caribbean coast. In this coconut producing municipality, we obtain our main raw material in abundance.

Only 4 hours away is the Panama Canal, where we can ship our products to anywhere in the world.

Commitment to the environment


We promote the integral use of natural resources and we help reduce pollution in the region as we recycle the coconut husks, previously burnt or thrown out to the sea by the farmers, by transforming them into products of great utility for a variety of industries through environmentally responsible processes.

Social responsibility


Ecolfibras is one of the main sources of employment in the area of Uraba. In addition to creating direct and dignified employment, we benefit our supply chain by buying the coconut husk that used to be thrown out, transforming it into an additional income.

In this way we contribute to the well-being of local families and to the economical development of one of the most vulnerable and socially troubled areas of Colombia.
