Jute packaging is widely being used in the present times because it is eco-friendly and completely natural. One reason why it is preferred over cotton is that it is not as expensive. Another reason why jute is a better choice is its extended durability and high tensile strength over cotton.

Jute is replacing synthetic materials in many areas specially in packaging industry. The industries take advantage of jute's biodegradable and eco-friendly nature.
 It is one of the strongest and cheapest natural fibres and has high tensile strength as compared to cotton.
Its UV protection, sound and heat insulation, low thermal conduction and anti-static properties make it a wise choice in packaging.
