description The use of natural resource materials has gained awareness among industries recently. Today, replacing the material with something more environmentally friendly, especially from waste natural products like pineapple leaf fibre (PALF), is a top concern. This research aims to look at the flexural properties of a glass fibre/pineapple leaf fibre (PALF) hybrid composite. The hand layup and cold compression methods were used to manufacture the hybrid composite plates, which provide 30 wt% of fibre and 70 wt% of the matrix. The form of the hybrid composite was unidirectional with a size of 30 cm 30 cm 3 cm and sandwich stacking. Universal testing equipment was used to conduct the flexural test. With a flexural strength of 290.11 MPa, 5 wt% PALF and 25 wt% bi-directional glass fibre were found to have the maximum flexural strength.
