TIPS

DID YOU KNOW?

  • Coconut oil in cosmetics

    Coconut oil is also often used in cosmetics. Upon coming into contact with skin, the coconut oil melts and is easily applied, while also quickly soaking into the skin and does not leave a greasy film. Because coconut oil has a cooling effect and is an excellent after sun lotion. It stops the skin from peeling as a result of a sunburn. In the cosmetics industry it is also used in hair care, as it a well-known regenerator, invigorating the scalp and preventing dandruff.

  • Coconut oil

    Coconut oil is obtained through the process of cold pressing the kernel of a freshly picked and organically grown coconut. In its solid form it has a white colour, a pleasant flavour and a strong coconut aroma. Coconut oil typically changes its physical state depending of the temperature of its surroundings. When cold (e.g. in the refrigerator), it quickly solidifies, while at room temperature it becomes softer, and at 25 °C it liquefies and becomes clear.

  • The coconut palm – the tree of life

    Coconut oil has been used in tropical countries for over a thousand years. It is extracted from the kernel or meat of matured coconuts that grow on the coconut palm (Cocos nucifera). The coconut palm is very highly prized. It is called the tree of life and is the most important cultural plant in the tropical belt, as it gives shelter and food to both people and animals alike.

    The coconut grows on palm trees that can reach a height of 30 metres and have 5-metre-long leaves. From flowering to the final germination of the coconut may take as long as two and a half years. The palm can live as long as 100 years, while it bears the most fruit between the ages of 10 and 50. At a single time, a palm can grow up to 75 coconuts the size of a child’s head, and which weigh up to 3 kilogrammes. A ripe coconut is made up of a hard shell, the coconut flesh and coconut water or coconut milk.
