About coconut oil
cpc code 2166 covers the production and processing of coconut oil, a versatile and widely-used vegetable oil. Coconut oil is a globally important agricultural commodity, with significant economic and industrial applications.

This involves drying the coconut meat, then pressing or centrifuging it to separate the oil. Refining processes like bleaching and deodorizing may also be used to improve the oil's quality and stability.
Production inputs
The main inputs for coconut oil production include mature coconuts, which serve as the raw material. Specialized machinery like oil presses, dryers, and centrifuges are also required. Additional inputs may include chemicals for refining, as well as energy sources to power the production equipment.
