This paper reviews various manufacturing techniques of nonwoven fabrics from coir fiber. It has been seen that needlepunching process is mostly used for manufacturing nonwoven structure from coir fiber. Various physical, mechanical and functional properties of needle-punched coir-nonwovens have been discussed here. The influence of various factors on various properties of coir-nonwoven such as Thermal Insulation, Air Permeability, Compressibility, Water Absorbency and Acoustic Insulation has been reported. A huge growth of potential applications of coir non-woven in various field of Geo-textiles, Dry filtration, Household goods, Agriculture and Horticulture, Acoustic and Thermal insulation have been observed.
