Wikipedia

  1. sisal hemp

    Sisal (, Spanish: [siˈsal]) (Agave sisalana) is a species of flowering plant native to southern Mexico, but widely cultivated and naturalized in many other countries. It yields a stiff fibre used in making rope and various other products. The term sisal may refer either to the plant's common name or the fibre, depending on the context. The sisal fibre is traditionally used for rope and twine, and has many other uses, including paper, cloth, footwear, hats, bags, carpets, geotextiles, and dartboards. It is also used as fibre reinforcements for composite fibreglass, rubber, and concrete products.

  1. sisal hemp

    Sisal Hemp is a natural fiber derived from the leaves of the Agave sisalana, a plant native to Southern Mexico. The fiber is traditionally used for rope, twine, paper, cloth, and other uses where strength and durability are required. It is named "hemp" due to its similarity to the hemp plant in terms of its fibrous quality, but it is not related to what is typically understood as hemp (Cannabis sativa).
