Jute is a highly lignified natural plant fiber that is extracted from the Corchorus plant. It is also known as the golden fiber as it is generally golden-brown in color with a natural luster. it is second only to cotton when it comes to production and glocal consumption as well as being one of the most affordable fibers.

Jute originated in India and has been grown on farms for centuries. The fiber started to be exported in the 1880s when a system for spinning and weaving was developed in Dundee Scotland, which now has a jute museum. Jute products were replaced by synthetic fibers in the 1970s and by the late 1990, bulk packaging reduced the need for jute sacks.
