Detailed application areas
Used in the food industry for commercial baking, confectionery and the production of cocoa butter substitutes (CBS). Thanks to its high saturated fatty acid content (especially lauric acid), it is a key raw material in the oleochemical industry for the production of soap, surfactants, fatty acids, fatty alcohols and glycerine. It is also valued in cosmetic and personal-care formulations, candles and industrial applications.
