Reptile Substrate Made from Coco Coir – Safe & Natural Choice

Creating a natural, healthy habitat is critical for reptiles and amphibians. Coco coir reptile substrate is widely used in terrariums worldwide thanks to its moisture control, safety and eco-friendly properties.

What Is Coco Coir Reptile Substrate?

Coco coir substrate is made from processed coconut husk fibers, washed and sterilized to remove dust, pathogens and impurities. It closely mimics the natural forest-floor environment found in many reptile habitats.

Unlike sand or synthetic bedding, coco coir maintains humidity while allowing excellent airflow around roots and burrowing animals.
