RBD coconut oil is produced by processing crude coconut oil by refining, bleaching and then deodorizing (RBD) to make it suitable for food applications. The resulting RBD coconut oil is bland in taste, light in colour, lacks off-flavours and has good resistance to oxidation, imparting superior tasting and keeping qualities to finished products. RBD coconut oil is also used in the production of coconut based specialty fats such as margarine, shortening, creaming and ice cream fats, etc.
RBD Coconut oil is an excellent cooking oil and can withstand high temperatures and it does not breakdown easily compared to other oils. Unlike polyunsaturated oils that easily combine with oxygen in the air to become rancid, coconut oil has a natural resistance to oxidation. Coconut oil is also one of the cheapest vegetable oils available in the world market, being significantly cheaper than other popular vegetable oils such as corn, soya bean, and canola and sesame oil.
