Virgin coconut oil is obtained from the fresh and mature white kernel of coconut (cocos nucifera l.) by

Mechanical or natural method (no chemical extraction) with or without the application of heat, which does

Not lead to alteration of the oil. It is agreed in the coconut industry that virgin oil would be coconut oils

Produced without dried “copra” as its starting point. Virgin coconut oil refers to a clear oil extracted from

Fresh coconut milk by coconut wet-process without refining. The result is unrefined coconut oil with very

Low free-fatty acid content. Virgin coconut oil from this process has very long shelf life, natural coconut aroma, flavor and light viscosity.

Cold pressing refers to the initial extraction of an oil emulsion or oleaginous substance from the host

Material. The objective of cold pressing is to eliminate solvent extraction, so the product is chemical free.

There should not be high heat generated during pressing, high heat can be avoided by using direct expellerpress, hydraulic press, or other means. “cold pressing” does not designate what type of pressing machine

Is used. However, oil that has been cold pressed should not have been exposed to high heat before or after

Pressing.

(there are 3 basic steps in oil processing: 1

Purification. The term cold pressing only applies to the middle – extraction.)
