This paper deals with the development of coir-based composite with the help of LY556 Epoxy resin as a polymer matrix material and coir fibre as a reinforcement material. The coconut coir fibre is reinforced with epoxy resin of different lamina and the coir fibres by treating the fibres with NaOH by fraction of 5% significantly after NaOH treatment the properties of the coir fibre are changed. All the samples were made using compression moulding hand layup technique. The samples were under gone tensile test and impact test to find the suitable applications. The significant finding of the research showed that samples with various lamina shows different values according to their fibre arrangement.
