                    [Summary] => Unknown to many, the cushion seats of Mercedes Benz cars are stuffed with coconut husks. The husks, which would otherwise have been thrown away or burned, are transformed into a higher-value product called coco fiber, an important raw material in the upholstery industry. 


One of the big local players in coco fiber production is Laguna-based Soriano Multi-Purpose Fiber Corp., which is owned by "the father of the coconut coir industry in the Philippines," Franciso Soriano.
