At JAPS Holding Impex, the production of Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is a meticulously curated process, designed to preserve the essence and purity of this tropical gem.

How We Deliver The Best

The process commences with the careful selection of premium coconuts, sourced from reputable plantations renowned for their commitment to excellence. Once handpicked, the coconuts undergo dehusking, revealing the prized white meat within. This coconut meat, meticulously separated from the hard shell, is then thoroughly washed and cleansed to eliminate any impurities.

Next, the cold-pressing process takes centre stage, where the cleaned coconut meat undergoes gentle extraction without the use of heat or chemical additives. Employing specialised cold-pressing machinery, we ensure the oil’s integrity and nutritional value remain uncompromised, resulting in an oil of unparalleled quality.

To attain the utmost purity, the extracted oil is meticulously filtered, guaranteeing the absence of any residual coconut particles. The oil is allowed to settle naturally, facilitating the separation of any remaining sediments from the clear, pristine oil.

The culmination of this refined process sees the Extra Virgin Coconut Oil gracefully bottled and sealed to preserve its freshness and wholesome essence. The absence of high temperatures and chemical solvents ensures the retention of natural antioxidants, vitamins, and essential fatty acids, bestowing upon our Extra Virgin Coconut Oil the distinct qualities that make it truly exceptional.
