World Coconut Day - Coconut Oil Applications from Malaysia Worldwide

World Coconut Day is observed annually on 2 September to recognise coconuts, coconut-producing communities and the economic importance of the global coconut sector. The International Coconut Community coordinates the observance and uses it to promote coconut development, innovation and industry awareness.

Coconut oil is obtained from coconut kernels or meat and has a fatty-acid composition rich in lauric acid. Different processing methods produce crude, virgin and refined coconut oils with distinct characteristics. RBD Coconut Oil undergoes refining, bleaching and deodorizing, producing a relatively neutral oil suited to food and manufacturing applications.
