Coconut Oil

Coconut Oil – Cold-Pressed & Refined Grades for Food, Cosmetic, and Industrial Use

Product Overview

Coconut Oil is a premium fixed oil extracted from the white flesh (copra) of mature coconuts (Cocos nucifera). Naturally rich in medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) such as lauric, capric, and caprylic acids, it offers excellent oxidative stability, smooth texture, and a mild tropical aroma. Coconut Oil is widely used in food, confectionery, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries for its versatility and high nutritional value.

At Tuna Sourcing, we supply both Cold-Pressed Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) and Refined, Bleached, and Deodorized (RBD) Coconut Oil, produced under ISO 22000 Food Safety Management standards. Our oils are filtered, stabilized, and packed to preserve freshness and quality, meeting international specifications for edible, cosmetic, and industrial use.
