sustainable interior design materials

Jute is one of the best sustainable interior design materials for making dashboards for motor vehicles. Jute being an organic and eco-friendly product is acceptable around the world, and its use is drastically increasing. Several types of household properties have been used in our homes for a long time. But nowadays, a French vehicle company has taken the initiative to use a sustainable product like jute as their interior decoration. For this reason, they have planned to set up a joint venture company in Bangladesh for making jute-based car components. Learn more

According to the opinion of the French car company CEO, Bangladesh is the right place to purchase jute but the quality of jute must be ensured. Bangladesh has a great opportunity to supply jute to the vehicle industries around the world. Using natural fiber reduces a vehicle’s weight which influences fuel consumption.

Sustainable Interior Products:

Nowadays, Bangladesh has an excellent opportunity to become a major supplier of car components from natural products jute. Dashboards, door panels, parcel shelves, wheel arches, headliners, spare wheel covers, and seat covers are prepared from natural jute fibers.

This company uses fibers, linen threads, and flax also for clothing, furnishing, transport, sports, etc. On the other hand, the car Company purchases 1400 tones of jute from Bangladesh every year. They will invest more to add the value of jute. The company is using flax for making interiors of vehicles, but it is more expensive than jute. The price of flax is 0.1 euro more per kilo than jute.

Jute has been considered as the golden fiber of Bangladesh, it is one of the cheapest and strongest biodegradable products around the world. The biggest car makers like BMW, and Mercedes-Benz are using eco-friendly products for interior car design to reduce cost and fuel consumption, in this connection Bangladesh is exporting jute to them. 

At an early stage, manufacturers used fiberglass for the interior decoration of their vehicles, but it was not recycled or biodegradable, so in the middle of the 90th decade management thought to apply eco-friendly products as an alternative. Jute has become the front line.

It is unbelievable that car industries around the world need almost 100000 tonnes of biodegradable products like jute, out of which 1o to 20 thousand tonnes are supplied by Bangladesh. If foreign buyers take the initiative to set up an eco-friendly product like the jute fiber-based industry in Bangladesh rather than purchasing raw jute, will be given extra facilities from Bangladesh’s point of view. As a result, both the producers and Bangladesh will benefit, and the value of jute will accelerate also.   

Opportunities for Sustainable Interior Design Materials:

There are lots of opportunities to convert jute fiber into diversified jute products and expand its market throughout the world. Once upon a time, Bangladesh and jute were similar names, and it was the lifeblood of the country’s economy but after the invention of polypropylene, it lost its glory in the 80^th decade. 

As a result, production dropped down to 9.9 lakh tonnes. Recently, buyers have shown interest in buying bioproducts like jute from Bangladesh, production has gone up to 19.6 lakh tones from 7.58 lakh hectares. Producers of cars think that this is the peak time to concentrate on jute products and search for potential customers. 

Conclusion:

This should be reorganized and needs to invest more in production to attract consumers. The tyranny of the middlemen is so great in every case that the poor and helpless peasants are not able to make a profit even after working hard day and night.
