Coconut oil has been used for centuries in tropical regions. It has an important place in traditional cuisines and health practices, especially in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands. Coconut oil has been used throughout history as a valuable resource for both nutritional and cosmetic purposes.

Production: The production of coconut oil involves the process of ripening and processing coconuts. First, the coconuts are harvested, shelled and grated. The grated coconut is pressed to extract the oil. This is done by cold pressing. Coconut oil is obtained from the fleshy part of the coconut. This oil is used for nutritional and cosmetic purposes.

Color, Aroma and Fragrance: Coconut oil is usually white to light cream in color. It is solid when cold and liquid when hot. In terms of odor, it carries a slightly sweet and tropical coconut aroma. Coconut oil has a natural and slightly sweet aroma profile. The odor strength is medium and evokes a tropical ambiance. These characteristics make for a pleasant experience, especially in cosmetics and in the kitchen.

Storage: To preserve the freshness of the carrier oils obtained by cold pressing and to achieve maximum shelf life, it is recommended to store them in a cool and dark place. If stored in the refrigerator, bring to room temperature before use.
