Coconut Oil

Product description

Coconut oil is a tropical oil, obtained from the white flesh of the coconut (copra). Coconut palm trees grow in the tropics and crops mainly come from the Philippines, Indonesia, and India. Olenex predominantly sources its crude coconut oil from the Philippines and Indonesia.

By hydrogenating this type of oil, the unsaturated fatty acids become saturated. It results in a higher melting point and increased oxidative stability in the oil that helps to extend the shelf life of the final product.
