Coconut oil is produced by extracting edible oil from the kernel, or white meat, of fully matured coconuts. The manufacturing process begins with the selection of quality coconuts, followed by dehusking, shelling, paring, and processing of the kernel. Oil extraction is carried out using either the dry or wet method. In the dry process, the kernel is dried to form copra, which is then pressed to release oil. In the wet process, oil is separated directly from fresh coconut meat by removing moisture and proteins. The extracted oil is subsequently filtered, refined, and packaged as virgin, refined, or industrial-grade oil. Coconut oil is widely used in cooking, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and biofuel applications. Modern processing facilities emphasize hygiene, efficiency, and compliance with international quality standards.
