Coir Fibre Price Trend Q4 2025
In Q4 2025, the global coir fibre market has been witnessing a moderate upward price trend, with key trade routes showing a quarter-on-quarter increase in the range of about 9%–13%.

Export markets have been experiencing tighter supply conditions as raw coconut husk availability has been limited and increasingly diverted toward higher-value coconut by-products such as cocopeat and activated carbon. Import demand from major Asian markets, particularly China and South Korea, has been supporting global trade activity during the quarter.
Toward the end of the period, prices have been remaining stable in December with no month-on-month change, as buyers have been maintaining sufficient inventories and slowing fresh procurement ahead of year-end holidays. Seasonal factors, including preparations for Chinese New Year and Seollal, have been encouraging cautious purchasing strategies among importers. Overall, the coir fibre market has been maintaining a firm outlook in Q4 2025 due to steady global demand and tightening supply of coconut-based raw materials.
