Organic Certified Crude Coconut Oil

The Crude coconut oil is produced by processing the dried coconut meat or copra.
It is hammer-milled to small granules and then mechanically pressed to extract the
coconut oil.  The  product after extracting the coconut  oil from the copra is  called
Crude Coconut Oil.  

Copra contains about  65% to 72% oil, and  oil made from the  copra is called  Crude
coconut oil. Crude coconut oil is processed from copra by expeller press.  It is not
considered fit  for human consumption until it has been refined.  The remaining oil
cake obtained as a by-product is used for livestock feed.

Coconut oil  accounts for  approximately  20% of all vegetable oils  used worldwide.
Coconut oil  is used in  margarines, vegetable  shortening,  salad oils, confections,
and in sports drinks to boost energy  and enhance athletic performance. It is used
in the  manufacture of soaps, detergents,  shampoos, cosmetics, glycerin, candles,
and synthetic rubber. Coconut oil is very healthy.

Crude coconut oil is normally  processed further to produce different products for
specific uses.
