The pita, also known as ixtle , is a spiny terrestrial bromeliad leaf that is
wild in high forest areas, particularly in moist places near streams, rivers or flooded areas, and between 100 and 700 m (De los Santos, 1996). By the way similar to an agave, also called maguey agave in Mexico. Although the species is commonly reported magdalenae Aechmea is likely that other employees for the same use.
pita fiber is from many points of view exceptional. Its size, brightness, fineness and strength make it a material comparable to silk but more force. Because of these characteristics Indians used it to manufacture gear, tying arrowheads and develop footwear and ceremonial objects. In the water does not shrink or lose strength. Indigo dyed weaving fishing nets allowed invisible, tough and durable.
Studies have shown that pita fiber has a strength 40% higher than typical of most used natural fibers (De la Cerda, 1967). Another interesting property is the color white appears in the wild (Sanjuán et al, 2000). Finally, among the natural fibers, the pita is also characterized by their size, by age of the plant extract which can measure from 1.7 to 2.5 m.
Currently, over 2000 Indian and mestizo peasants in the states of Oaxaca, Chiapas and Veracruz pita fiber being extracted to supply the piteado cottage industry in central and northern Mexico.
The saddlers specialized in the manufacture of handicrafts piteada currently use the fiber to produce twisted yarns that used in the embroidery of leather goods like belts, boots, saddles and others that are sold to an audience that likes to dress as cowboy. These products are marketed throughout the country and in the United States, but the higher sales volume were recorded in northern Mexico stores specializing in leather goods.
The price of the crafts of this type is high: a belt quality has a value exceeding 100 $ 4 a saddle very fine work can cost 50 times more . There is also a growing market for cheaper products, which consist primarily of items under $ 50 singles like belts, wallets, headbands ...
These crafts are made in small factories and family workshops located in the center and north. Smaller facilities produce a few pieces per month and more than 500.
piteado The technique begins with the development of the wire, twisting the fiber by hand on the knee leather cover. Then the artisans open the piece of leather to mark the picture that will adorn, embroider with thread of string, lower the leather with a metal tip and end sewing machine a second piece of leather that covers the back of the leg and if it is a belt buckle adding.
fiber to work with artisans looking to get more twisted wire long and tough as possible, which allows them to more easily embroider leather pieces. Moreover, artisans prefer to have for his work with a fiber white and uniform.
The main defects that recognize the saddlers about the pita are
The lack of resistance (pita raves).
At the time of the update of this report 1 U.S. $ was equal to 12 Mexican pesos
The lack of uniformity in the thickness of the fiber: pita bighead, when the base of fiber bundle is much thicker than the tip. The lack of hair, when the fiber is tangled and not allow the quick extraction of the strands that twist. The lack of whiteness, when the string is color is yellow or pearl or bone.
order to supply the product, craftsmen saddlers
relate to merchants specializing in distribution, who are responsible for purchasing raw material to producers
of southeastern Mexico and Guatemala times. In general, the same traders process the fiber-washed, bleached and combed, or send it.
The sale of the product and is directly benefited from the workshops of craftsmen saddlers, who carefully examined the fiber bundles before buying. According to the production capacity of the workshop, the transaction varies from a few to 50 kg.
Price pita fiber is much higher than any other fiber, including silk. The artisans who pay bundles of fiber posts in the workshop from 50 to 80 U.S. $ / kg depending on quality. Workshops and dealers retail redistribute pita can sell up to 100 U.S. $ / kg.
Another way to provide pita fiber is twisted, which is sold by dozens of threads. There are threads of two qualities: a tip, when you twist one end of the fiber is cut and then twisted the other, and two points, when the entire fiber is twisted. In the first case dozen sells for U.S. $ 1.00 and up to 24 seconds. The yarns are purchased by semi workshops that produce more commercial items and on a larger scale. Pita fiber is a product that has no major problems of scarcity and can be obtained throughout the year from plantations and wildlife populations in southeast Turkey. However, due to the cycle of activities that its producers, also dedicated crops such as coffee, maize, beans and chile, and seasonal demand increases, supply becomes inadequate at certain times of year. About 10 years ago when the market was monopolized by a few traders, there were periods of increased scarcity and speculation phenomena.
Until recently, there was a brand of pita in the market. With the initiative of the Producers Cooperative the UPIS-L in the Methodus Consulting Chinantla and began marketing the fiber under the brand of Pita Jungle.
