Yatra to Foam and Coir Bed Industry

Students always evince their unquenchable amount of thirst for knowledge. Having gone through the lesson 'The Story of Palampur Village', in which students learn about the growth of Palampur as a self-reliant village with its industries, students wanted to know whether such village exist within our vicinity. To quench their thirst, Sri Prakash conducted a visit to S. Narasapuram village what is known for its foam and coir mattress industry, CC Mattresses Private Limited. This industry is owned by Sri. Kishore Chakka, an entrepreneur based in Tuni.  Students of grade VIII and IX actively took part in it.
How jubilant our student world when they got firsthand information on making coir and foam mattress. Students learnt how villages can grow with the help of non-farming activities like foam bed industry. Their live interaction with Mr. R. Alok Kumar, manager, brought life to their knowledge. They learnt the process of making foam bed which includes vulcanization of natural husk of coconut into rubberised coir. As a part of vulcanization, the natural coir is treated with latex and other chemicals like potassium, zink etc. to protect it from bio risks. The process includes punching and pressing under drums and hydraulic press. Students learnt how a farm product (coconut) supports the growth of non-farming industries like coir bed, jaggery, processed food etc.
