The CocoCore (Austin, TX) is a vertically integrated manufacturer of premium coconut coir substrates. Unlike brands that resell third-party media, CocoCore owns and operates their processing facility in India — controlling sourcing, triple-washing, buffering, and packaging under one roof. This manufacturer-direct model guarantees batch-to-batch consistency, ultra-low EC (< 0.5 mS/cm), stable pH (5.5–6.5), and competitive pricing that simply isn’t possible through middlemen.
Every CocoCore product is triple-washed to remove salts, calcium-buffered to prevent nutrient lockout, and retains up to 6x its weight in water. The product line spans ready-to-use GrandeGro loose fills (50L bags), compressed grow pots (3/4 to 6 gallon), 5KG blocks, propagation cubes, and grow slabs — covering every stage from propagation to harvest. 100% biodegradable, zero waste, earth-friendly.
CocoCore owns their processing facility — not a white-label brand. This means direct quality control over every batch, consistent specs, and wholesale pricing without middlemen markups.

CocoCore coir retains up to 6 times its weight in water while maintaining excellent air-filled porosity (25–55%). Consistent moisture-to-air ratio promotes healthy root development at every stage.
