The heart of the bulbous plant is underground and divides into several trunks. each trunk produces its fruit only once. The banana trunk is made up of layers of different hardness, color and malleability. These layers are separated by hand and cut into fiber strips. The fiber strips are then washed in chlorinated water and dried in the sun, after which they will be ready to be processed. With the internal ones it is possible to produce very fine yarns to make light, soft and precious fabrics. Suitable for making clothing and underwear.
