The best intended uses, such as high-quality bio-composite raw material, can be determined by understanding the fundamental characteristics of natural fibres. In order to increase the sustainability and economic value of natural fibres, this article explains their properties and potential applications. Natural fibres are potential light weight composite and reinforcement materials because of their low density, high strength to weight ratio, and reduction. Any manufacturing sector's ability to survive depends heavily on its materials. Due to their high specific strength, great damping capability, and high specific modulus, composite materials have largely replaced conventional materials. Due to the promising qualities of natural fibres, such as their low weight, water resistance, high impact strength, and environmental friendliness, natural fibre reinforced polymer composites have gained attention in the modern period. Various natural fibre types that can be employed as reinforcement in polymer composites are covered in this study. The mechanical characteristics of fibres are influenced by their microstructure and chemical makeup, with the fibre cross-sectional area having the greatest degree of variation. Natural fibres readily absorb water because they include hemicellulose, which gives them hydrophilic qualities. This makes them less suitable with a matrix that has hydrophobic properties. The production processes and steps for natural fibre reinforced composite are offered in several forms. Then, these composites' mechanical and tribological properties are reviewed.
