Jute is the raw natural plant fiber.
Jute is a natural plant fibre harvested from the jute plant,
valued for its strength, durability and eco-friendly qualities.

to create various materials.
When it is spun and woven into a coarse,
open-weave fabric, it is commonly known as
Hessian (in the UK and South Africa) or Burlap (in the USA).
The term jute itself may refer to the raw fibre or to finished jute fabric,
depending on how it has been treated, woven or refined,
the finished product may be referred to as
Jute fabric, Hessian, or Burlap,
but all originate from the same natural source.
