Product description

Jute sliver is the step between raw jute and spun yarn. Fibre is opened and carded into a continuous, loosely aligned strand, then wound into a roll. Mills feed that roll into drawing and spinning. Buyers use sliver when they want more even fibre, controlled moisture and a packing format that travels cleanly in a container.

Ametheus offers long fibre and cut fibre. Long fibre is the usual choice for spinning. Cut fibre is used for coarser counts, twine, rope and some nonwoven lines. Grades are named so your mill and our mill use the same language: Meshta White A, B and C, and Tossa BTE, BTC, BTD (golden yellow) and BTCB.

Each roll is tied with jute rope to limit breakage. Rolls are wrapped in hessian or loaded on export pallets. Cut fibre is packed in rope-bound bales.

Where buyers use sliver

Spinning and yarn

Spinning mills take sliver as the feed for various yarn counts. Long fibre sliver gives better tensile behaviour and fewer breaks on finer counts.

Kenaf and Mesta blends

Nonwoven and paper lines use Meshta / Kenaf sliver as a lighter, cost-effective blend for agricultural mats, soil-erosion control and reinforced sheets.

Twine, rope and textiles

Cut fibre and coarser Tossa grades suit twine, rope and heavier weaving where a more rigid fibre is preferred.

Geotextile and erosion control

Tossa or Meshta sliver is blended into jute geotextiles for slope work, drainage and road projects. The fibre keeps structure and stays water-permeable.

Paper and pulp

Long fibre sliver is fed into pulping for natural and recycled paper. Fibre length supports sheet tensile strength.

Bio-composites and boards

Automotive and construction plants mix sliver into moulded boards for door panels, partitions and acoustic parts. The sliver form blends more easily with polymer matrices.

Furniture and handicrafts

Smaller volumes go into stuffing, padding and binding for furniture, eco-cushions and mats.

Bulk export

Sliver is a standard export input for processing units in markets such as China, Turkey, Egypt and Thailand. Fixed roll weight and moisture make long-haul handling simpler.

How to buy from Ametheus

Send one email with grade, long or cut fibre, quantity in metric tons, destination port, Incoterm (FOB Chittagong / Mongla, or CFR / CIF), payment (LC at sight, TT or CAD) and whether you want SGS inspection. We reply with a Proforma Invoice. Price is quoted on that PI. Grade, moisture, packing and price bind only when the PI / contract is accepted.

Typical lead time is 20–35 days after LC or TT and specification lock. Mixed grades in one container are possible if agreed before stuffing.
