🌍 Crude Coconut Oil from Vietnam: Rich Moon’s Contribution to a Global Coconut Future

Introduction

World Coconut Day (WCD) 2025 was celebrated across continents with great enthusiasm under the theme “Uncovering Coconut’s Power, Inspiring Global Action.” Governments, research institutes, industry leaders, and farming communities highlighted the coconut’s role in food security, climate resilience, rural livelihoods, and global trade. From India’s international workshop on coconut genebanks to Sri Lanka’s large-scale cultivation initiatives and the Philippines’ farmer-led innovations, the message was clear: the coconut is not only a heritage crop but also a strategic driver of sustainable development.

At Rich Moon, we proudly align with this mission through our production and export of Crude Coconut Oil (CNO). Our CNO, derived from Vietnam’s premium copra, is a cornerstone product for industries worldwide. By supplying a raw material that fuels manufacturing across multiple sectors, Rich Moon bridges the gap between Vietnam’s agricultural resources and the global demand for sustainable, high-performance industrial inputs.

🏭 Understanding Crude Coconut Oil

Crude Coconut Oil is extracted from dried coconut meat (copra) through mechanical or solvent-based methods. Unlike refined or virgin oils used for food and cosmetics, CNO is primarily valued in industrial applications. Its high concentration of medium-chain fatty acids (especially lauric acid) gives it unique characteristics such as stability, biodegradability, and versatility, making it a preferred choice for manufacturers.

Key Applications of CNO:

• Soaps & Detergents – Essential for foaming, cleansing, and lathering properties.

• Surfactants & Cleaning Agents – Widely used in both household and industrial cleaning solutions.

• Oleochemicals – Feedstock for producing fatty acids, esters, alcohols, and glycerin.

• Industrial Lubricants & Greases – Provides biodegradability and performance in mechanical uses.

• Animal Feed Formulations – In select applications, used as an energy-rich fat supplement.

By offering a renewable, plant-based alternative to petroleum-derived inputs, CNO plays a direct role in helping industries reduce their environmental footprint.
