Abstract

Subang Regency is designated as a pineapple commodity area due to the presence of natural resources, supporting facilities, and infrastructure. Pineapple harvest waste in the form of pineapple leaves is used by a local SME, Alfiber, as textile raw materials, such as yarn and cloth. However, there are still short fibre residues that cannot be utilized in the process. Through training activities for Alfiber members and the people of Cijambe Sub-district, Subang District, West Java, the ITB community service team provided an alternative solution for utilizing the short fibres of pineapple leaves by processing them into paper. This community service activity uses a qualitative approach consisting of four stages: the initial stage, preparation, activities, and results. The initial stage is preliminary research. The preparation stage and activities are participatory and educative and involve the ITB community service team, Alfiber, and the people of the Cijambe Sub-district. The results of the training activities prove that short fibres can be processed into paper using simple equipment and paper-making techniques such as moulding techniques. After participating in the activity, the participants succeeded in following the activity material and could make pineapple fibre paper independently. Even though it requires improvement in terms of quality, the paper can be produced into other products using paper as the primary material.

Abstract

The growing urgency of sustainability in the textile industry necessitates the development of biodegradable materials derived from organic waste. This study introduces a composite material that integrates pineapple leaf fiber (PLF) with bioplastic made from orange peel waste, following the Material Driven Design (MDD) framework. The composite is produced through traditional weaving techniques (plain and twill) and cast using a gelatin–agar bioplastic matrix. Mechanical testing demonstrates tensile strength of up to 26.79 kg and elongation of 98.31%, depending on the PLF content and bioplastic thickness. User perception analysis indicates that samples combining twill weave with 300 ml of bioplastic provide the most desirable tactile and visual qualities. The resulting materials are biodegradable, locally sourced, and aesthetically engaging, positioning them as viable alternatives for accessories and interior products. This research contributes to sustainable material innovation by merging craft traditions with contemporary material experimentation.
