Information Features Natural jute webbing is sourced from a Fibrous Plant mainly grown in India and other Asian countries that is shredded and spun into yarn. The jute yarn is woven into stretch-resistant webbing for use in the traditional upholstery trades on chair seats and backs. The jute webbing with 2 red stripes denotes quality and has a 10lb breaking strain. Jute webbing is also used extensively as plant ties in the horticulture industry where, because of its natural benefits, the jute will break down eventually under ultraviolet light once its job of protecting the tree or plant from wind has passed. Jute webbing is also known as burlap and hessian.
