Re: Coconut Oil Supreme = WFN Virgin Coconut oil from India

At a guess, packaging? I haven't ordered COS recently, but when I was a

customer, the oil always came in plastic. From WFN, I can get oil in

glass, which I strongly prefer.

You are correct. It also is the same oil you may have seen sold as Virgin Oil De

Coco-Crème.

It is produced by a cold centrifuging process that is patented by a Canadian

company - Quality

First International.

They are the only wholesale source of this oil worldwide.

They also sell retail. You can get a retail price list by emailing them or

calling them toll

WFN brings the oil in in plastic 5 gallon pails and has it repackaged ...

It's likely just about impossible to buy any oil that hasn't been packaged in

plastic at some

point.

Crud. Well, at least WFN repackages it in glass and cuts down the plastic

exposure time.

with another wholesale buyer and from other sources over the last couple years.

Thanks, everyone!

A representative from Quality First e-mailed me that yes, the oil is

the same. I'm in Canada, and I will order the oil from Quality First

for sure. Too bad about the plastic containers!

Is it less expensive thru Quality First. Do they call theirs " Coco de la Creme "

or something like that? I take it they use plastics!

I think it's a little cheaper than from other retail suppliers.

They do sell some sizes in glass jars but I would imagine that it to has been

repackaged from

plastic pails.

I don't know this for sure. They may ship it from India in glass containers but

I think it more

likely it is transported in plastic pails and repackaged. you could write to

them and ask.

Probably all the oil sold in glass jars was transported from oversea's before

being put into

glass jars.

Breakage, insurance, and economic shipping would seem to encourage companies to

use plastic

containers rathr than glass.

That's just my understanding of the situation but there maybe someone who

packages coconut oil

in glass at the point of production and transports it in glass jars, I just have

not heard of

anyone who does this.
