Hessian fabric
Hessian, burlap in North America, or crocus in the Caribbean, is a woven fabric made of vegetable fibres: usually the skin of the jute plant, or sisal leaves. It is generally used for rough handling, such as to make sacks in which to ship farm products and sandbags, and for wrapping tree-root balls. However, this dense woven fabric, historically coarse, is also recently being produced in a more refined state—where it is known simply as jute—so as to provide an eco-friendly material for bags, rugs, and other products.
