Kapok (Scientific Name: Ceibapentandra), also known as Java cotton, Java Kapok, and Silk Cottonis a well-known substitute of cotton in the fibre industry. One of the best known natural fibres known to humanity, it is found in two species – Kapok (Genus: Ceiba) and Indian Kapok (Genus: Bombax; Indian name: Shemal). The Indian kapok is a substitute of the international species only. In comparison to cotton, the kapok fibres are less tensile and have lesser water retention capacity.

The name ‘Kapok’ is used both as the tree name and the fibre name. The tree bears flowers having banana like seedpods containing hair like fibres called Kapok fibres. This tree is a native to South America and Indonesia (Java). Naturally growing in the tropical rainforests, it is commercially cultivated in kapok plantations in Asia, Malaysia, and South America. They are cultivated for seedpods containing a fluffy yellowish fibre, which has a commercial viability. The kapok fibre is very light and buoyant in nature.

 

Varieties

There are two varieties of Kapok plant found worldwide; one is the Indonesian Kapok and the other is Indian Kapok. Unlike the Indonesian Kapok, the Indian Kapok (also called floss) is a native of India only. It shares a few properties of the Java cotton type but it more brownish in colour. Apart from its commercial production, it is also purposefully planted along park boundaries because of its vibrant red coloured flowers, which bloom during the months on May and April and add to the scenic beauty of the surroundings.

We are one of the very few successful business houses in India that ceaselessly endeavours to carry on its legacy of following ethical business practices in the industry. Our list of products primarily includes Raw Cotton, Polyester Staple Fibre, Kapok, and Tea.
Established in 1971, the organization was a brainchild of Late Sh. Mahabir Prasad Shroff and his elder son, Late Mr Ashok Shroff. In 1973, his other younger sons, Mr Ajit Shroff and Mr Anup Shroff joined the business and helped them drive the organization to constantly increasing levels of success.
Late Sh. Mahabir Prasad brought with him his unbeaten expertise, sharp business acumen, and an uncanny knack required for timeless survival in this industry. He had earned many accolades in his professional life. To list a few of them, he was the co-founder of ‘The Punjab Cotton Company (Export-Import) Ltd.

Later he became a partner in ‘Gopiram Poddar& Company’, an organization popular as one of the biggest exporters and suppliers of raw cotton in India at that time. However, after establishing his own endeavour - The National Group, he started investing all his time and resources into making it a huge success. To start with, he primarily laid focused on export and supply of raw cotton; but very soon, he started dealing in iron and steel as well. Today, the organization has diversified into multiple products like tea, kapok, and polyester staple fibre.
