Virgin Coconut Oil or VCO is a magic oil which is rich in fatty acids, minerals, vitamins and antioxidants.

Virgin Coconut Oil can be produced by two common methods:

         1. Heated (Hot Methods) processes.

         2. Non-Heated (Cold Methods) processes.

Hot methods apply extreme pressure or high heat to extract the oil from the nut. Cold methods obtain oil without applying heat or pressing the coconut meat mechanically, hence the more common term "cold pressed". Virgin coconut oil is extracted from fresh coconut flesh without any chemical process or ingredients. The virgin coconut oil plant extracts virgin coconut oil from fresh coconut milk using cold processing technology through high speed centrifugal method. The virgin coconut oil extraction takes place through different steps, which includes coconut dehusking, deshelling, peeling (paring), disintegration, milk extraction and coconut oil extraction.

Please refer our coconut processing machines link for the details of each machine

Cold processing technology

Coconut milk is an emulsion of coconut oil and water which is stabilized by a protein. To recover the oil from the milk the protein bond has to be broken either by heating or by enzymes or by some mechanical means.

The most commonly used methods are by using heat also called hot process and by mechanical means also called cold process.

We apply cold process method using high speed tubular centrifuge to help the coconut oil retain its natural healthy nutrients. When a coconut oil is cold pressed, the temperatures during the pressing process never exceed 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Cold process produces best quality coconut oil with sweet coconut aroma if done in a 2 stage centrifuge process and also ensures longer shelf life. It contains antioxidants and phytosterols which counteract oxidation (spoilage) and excessive free-radical formation. Cold pressed coconut oil is packed full of great natural healthy properties. It contains antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, and is full of healthy short and medium chain fatty acids.
