The birth of rubberized coir industry is quite amusing and interesting. Prior to
the year 1960, people hardly had no idea of this novel and high utility product. In
those days the world famous car manufactures MIS Volks Wagen of Germany. We are
using horse as cushion filing marketing for their car seats.
As their production increased from 100 cars per day to 300, there was clearly a
need of raw material, this necessitated a suitable alternative product for urbanization
and which would suit to their specification of various alternative tried like sisal fiber,
jute fiber, and the coir fiber were decidedly found to the best. This was the beginning
of rubberized coir industry.
In the global market the important use of rubberized coir been in the
automobile industry. In the domestic front, initially the growth of rubberized coir
manufacturing industry was very slow. Particularly as lead matters owing to lack of
awareness ordinary organized marketing efforts.
There was total disapproval of this product in all sectors when introduced as a
healthy hygienic cushioning material. People considered it as a dirty, filthy low cost
and rough product meant for the low income segment j of the customer market. The
PU form products in view of its soft feel used to be considered as luxury product and
had the preference of the upper segment of the consumer market. The situations
gradually changed and the seventies witnessed rapid growth of the industry with
product finding more and more acceptance and outlets on account of consumer public
realizing its unique characteristics functional aspects and cost advantages.
Slowly many state governments rubberized coir “wealth from waste” and

through issue of government circulars. The word mattress originated from the French
word “MATERAS” in A.D 1300.

the very successful “Dunlopillow”. Pocket spring was also introduced. These were
individual springs sewn in to linked fabric bags. By 1950, Frank was in control of his
own company and was producing innerspring divan bases that were wire units fixed
on to timber frames.
The mattress was also innerspring units that where upholstered and tape edged
with a machine. Before this time, all the work was done by hand by hand except the
swing of the cases.
Spring and form become major component in the 1960's and frank replaced
the previous natural fibers with these. The 1970’s saw the invention of the waterbed
and the bed takeover of form; the majority of beds were made with this material.
Springs however still remain popular yet expensive. In this period Both Geoff and
Frank were working on such beds. Mechanization increased greatly in the 1980's and
