How Banana Waste Is Turned Into Rugs, Fabric, And Hair Extensions | World Wide Waste

#BananaTrunks #Banana
The African country of Uganda is one of the world’s largest consumers of bananas. But for every ton of the fruit, plantations leave behind two tons of refuse. TexFad transforms them into tough fiber that can be woven into rugs, place mats, and even hair extensions.

This is such great news. What a wonderful invention

[@taleandclawrock2606]

I love this channel bringing us marvelous traditional , sustainable artisanship and crafts. PLEASE include contact and buying links for these businesses, as there is a global audience and demand for hand crafted products, and many may donate to help the farmers buy more machines.

[@Sassenhaim]

The ugandan princes and princesses of bananafibers , the pride of work shows. If you farm something use all of the plant not just the fruits or edibles.

[@venugopalants1758]

Bless those who contribute to save earth our planet. A few suggestion to manufacture and use like linen. Can’t we make use of the residue for producing methane gas for cooking etc then as fertilizer after using to make fabrics to cover sofas bed spread window and door curtains, garments. In south India they make cloth. The demand has dwindled after use of cheaper nylon fabrics. But this one is eco-friendly. I appreciate you all.

[@billyje4726]

He is right!!! This is the next fiber if we could make it more widespread!! 🙏🙏🙏

[@4riversgd]

Fiber extracting machine

[@PeterRudesindus]

"green alternative to cotton or silk" man....

[@alwayslearning7672]

It really shouldn't be so hard to find money for machine to get developed. There's so money out there. I really wish African governments would stop stealing the 100's of millions of dollars that African countries receive in Aid and buy machines for these innovators.

[@ELF_Productions]

You can compost and weave. You don't always have to weave. You are proving to be greedy. It must be something to make your life richer and having something to do on your free time maybe, buy not a business and you should employ more people. It must be to make a living not to be rich.

[@zzzzzz-zv9ev]
