Elemi is the gum resin secreted by the majestic Canarium luzonicum tree, a member of the same botanical family as frankincense and myrrh. This tree is found mainly in tropical forests in the Philippines, where it grows wild. It is also known as Manila elemi.
About our company:
In 1989 Real International Exports came into being with the main purpose of helping the farmers in the Quezon and Bicol provinces augment their income. They were mainly living from their income from coconut and palay produce. During that time the price of coconut products particularly copra -desicated coconut was too low. We established Real International Exports mainly for the production of Manila Gum Elemi.
We were able to help the farmers increase their income. Real International Exports gain momentum in the production of Manila Gum Elemi and were able to ship all the requirements of the buyers from 1989 onwards.
In our eagerness to emphasize the exportation of Manila Gum Elemi we decided to change our name to R. Cielo Real Elemi International Exports in July of 2011 with the same vigor and commitment to support our farmers in their income and meet the requirements of our buyers. Elemi is our middle name!
Over the years, we are able to maintain our quality and reliability of supply thereby meeting the needs of our clients.
Today, R. Cielo Real Elemi International Exports maintains our standing as the biggest exporter of Manila Gum Elemi in terms of volume and we continue to maintain our status and do our best to improve our production depending on the requirements of our clients around the world.

Coconut Cochin oil is basically the refined and bleached form of the coconut oil. Coconut crude oil undergoes refining and bleaching stages to take out the free fatty acids and other impurities. This form of oil is inedible until it has reached the deodorization phase. Most common use of the Cochin oil is in the cosmetics, fuel, and soap industries. Its color is lighter than that of the crude oil.

Cosmetics Industry
Paper Processing
Paints
Pharmaceuticals

Coconut crude oil is the pure form of the coconut oil after mechanical extraction from the copra. This form of oil is commonly used in the animal feed industry as a very good source of fatty acids and energy for animals such as chicken and pigs. This oil is not suitable for human consumption. The color is brownish yellow and has a fragrant coconut aroma.
Copra is crushed to tiny bits through a mechanical crusher. It is cooked to a specific temperature and pushed through a mechanical oil extractor to extract the oil from the coconut meat. The extracted oil is filtered through a filter press that uses high pressure to separate the copra fines from the oil. The finished product is a clear, light brown oil with a sweet coconut aroma.
Common uses of Crude Coconut Oil:
Raw materials for manufacturing of biodiesel
Cosmetics industry
Ingredients of animal feed for hogs, chicken, cattle, etc

Coconut RBD (Refined, Bleached, and Deodorized) oil, popularly known as Coconut Cooking Oil, is the oil derived from the coconut meat or copra that is mechanically extracted. The extracted coconut oil is then subjected to a series of refining stages to take out all the impurities. The final product is now edible and free from odour and flavour.
