There are vast amounts of indigenous fibers that can be found in Asia. Some of which especially thrive in the country's tropical climate including the world-famous Abaca fiber and Pina (Pineapple) fiber.

The process of extraction varies from plant to plant but the rest of the operations is generally the same. This section will touch on the standard operating procedure of the Peral company with regards to the processing of Abaca fiber. It is provided to give an insight into the laborious process entailed in this industry as well as the strict quality inspection we subject our product to. Together with Peral Enterprises, we believe only in the best.

The first step in the process of extracting the Abaca Fiber is to cut the stalk of the Abaca Plant. The stalk is round in nature and will be sliced into quarters lengthwise. Afterwards, the stalk is placed under a large knife.  Though small by comparison, it would look similar to that of a paper cutting board where the knife is pressed halfway down and is secured in that position. Then, the stalk will be pulled through the knife scrapping off the none filamented materials. This is the raw form of the abaca fiber. The fiber will then be hung up to dry as shown in the photos

After the fiber has been dried, it is then brought in for inspection. At this point the fibers are then classified into the different grades of fibers. Because Peral Enterprises is in the business of selling the best, the company separates the excellent fibers from the rest. When the fibers have been separated. It is then hung up and combed to remove tangles, bark and other impurities. When done, the finished product will yield a white, shiny and clean processed fiber. Only these high quality fibers will be used and sold by the company.

The next step after the processing is to pack the fiber for export. The Company uses its own in-house baling press for this purpose. Every bale is then tied and packed with Polyethylene plastic and covered with a sack to ensure that the customers receive secured quality fibers.
