Resumen
The leaves of the pineapple plant are generally thorny, placed in a spiral shape, although depending on the variety they can be smooth, reaching a final length between 30 and 120 cm long. Its interior is composed of fibrous filaments that are fully removable and usable. The country of the Philippines is the main pioneer in the extraction and transformation of this vegetable fiber into leather and textile fiber compounds. In the country of Colombia, the fiber of the pineapple leaf is not well known and is not used for any specific purpose. In the Meta department; more exactly in the municipality of Puerto Rico, pineapple cultivation has an exponential growth year after year according to reports from the Ministry of Agriculture MINAGRICULTURE, in this municipality the association Agroindustrial Fibers Natural of Ariari CORFINAT is located, which together with the Governor of the Meta are at the forefront of a new project that consists of taking advantage of the leaves of the plant that today are considered a waste in our country. The use is based on the extraction of the pineapple leaf fiber followed by a spinning transformation process that seeks to make way for a finished product aimed at the Colombian textile sector.
