Procurement Knowledge
Frequently Asked Procurement Questions
What extraction process is used for your cold-pressed coconut oil?
Our coconut oil is mechanically expeller-pressed strictly below 50°C from indirectly dried, smoke-free, chemical-free, and sulfur-free mature copra. This ensures zero thermal degradation and preserves natural lauric acid (48-52%), fresh aroma, and polyphenols.
What quality certifications and laboratory parameters are guaranteed?
Our coconut oil is AGMARK Grade 1 Certified, FSSAI compliant, and verified under Gulf Standard GSO 1754-1-2025. Third-party testing by ISO/IEC 17025 accredited Salalah Laboratories at Port of Salalah (Report TR/3842) confirms volatile moisture at 0.098%, peroxide value at 3.00 mEq O₂/kg, lauric acid at 46.08%, insoluble impurities nil, and non-detectable heavy metals (<0.10 ppm).
What packaging formats and MOQs are available for export?
Our primary export packaging is purpose-made 200L food-grade metallic containers (80 drums per 20ft FCL / ~16 MT net cargo), manufactured brand-new for each shipment. This format is far safer than 22MT or 30MT bulk flexitanks, eliminating bladder rupture hazards, plasticizer migration, and dockside heat scorching. We also supply 1,000L IBC totes for industrial facilities upon request. We procure unpackaged bulk oil directly from the Kannur extraction facility, and export with an MOQ of 5 MT. Custom buyer private-label bottling is available upon contract request.
What is the HS Code for cold-pressed coconut oil?
The international HS Code for pure unrefined cold-pressed coconut oil is 15131900.
