Coconut oil can provide many benefits. From a healthy oil to cook with to a deep conditioning hair mask, coconut oil is versatile in its uses. It is loaded with antioxidants, helping your skin ward off free radicals. According to the Organic Life, the Coconut Oil is generally categorize into Refined and Virgin Coconut Oil

Refined

The main difference between virgin coconut oil and regular, organic coconut oil is the amount of refining the oil undergoes. Refined coconut oil means the oil has undergone a process of drying the coconut. This type of coconut oil may sometimes be called deodorized or bleached according to Live the Organic Life. This is usually done outside in the Sun. Generally, refined coconut oil is thought of as being of a lesser quality

Unrefined

Unrefined coconut oil may also be called virgin coconut oil. The type of method used to extract the oil from the coconut is done in the most natural way. This way, the coconut oil stays in its natural form without the use of any artificial filteringwhich is sometimes used in the process of refined coconut oil. No chemicals are usedin the process of extracting coconut oil using this method.

Smell and Taste

Virgin coconut oil maintains a sweet smell and taste of the coconut, whereas refined coconut oil will lose much of the flavor and smell. An easy way to know if coconut oil is unrefined is to hold a bit of it in the palm of your hand. Unrefined coconut oil should easily melt in the palm of your hand due to your body’s temperature.Refined coconut oil will usually stay fairly solid without melting

Copra

Copra refers to the dried kernel or meat of the coconut. Refined coconut oil uses copras. Coconut oil made of copra is generally thickin consistency —notably thicker than virgin coconut oil. Oil made of copra is too thick to use as a moisturizer for the skin or a 2conditioner for the hair because it will sit on the skin without being absorbed. This can clog the pores and actually do more harm to the skin than help.

Raw Material
We always select the best raw materials from the selected suppliers who control their quality and we continuously give feedback to the suppliers in order to maintain the quality. We assign supervisors for the unloading area in order to select the bad ones when the raw materials are unloading. We also carry out a second inspection to find out the bad ones, whichwe could notfind out from the first inspection. Our unloading area consists of a covered shell where no harm things can be contaminate to the raw materials

Shielding
Our raw material unloading area, de-shelling area, wet area and production area are under one roof and separated in order to maintain our quality continuously. Our factory that has been designed according to the ISO 22000 standardis fully covered building with pest controlling systems. So product can’t be contaminate at any moment and products can be produce up to the quality standards

Drying
We wash the white kernels 3 times before grating. We randomly select 5kg of whitekernels per hour and inspect the quality before grating. We use fully automatic stainless steel graters for this process. The gratered coconuts are dried under the temperature of 60 degrees of Celsius and supervisors always ensure that the processing product won’t exceed 60 Co in order to maintain the quality. We lab test every desiccated coconut badge we manufacture in order to keep the correct moisture level under the technique of “Moisture and other matter volatile at 103 Co max.” We always keep the moisture of the desiccated coconut bellow 2.00 as mentioned in the quality standard. Desiccated coconuts, which are got out of the dryers,are kept for 15 min time for cool down and packed in food-gradedpolythenes

Pressing (Extracting
Desiccated coconut is pressed and oil is extracted using an expeller machine. Every 10 minutes we supervise the temperature of the oil by using thermo meters. So throughout the extracting process supervisors can pay attention to keep the heat of the oil lower than 60 C0

Filtering
Previously extracted oil is undergone through a filter and gets the colour to no 01 as mentioned in the standard. Colour no 01 parameter indicates “25 mm cell on the lovibond colour scale expressed in Y+5R not deeper than”. For the filtering process,we use food graded filter cloths. We lab test the oil after filtering in order to keep the correct moisture level under the technique of “Moisture and other matter volatile at 105 Co max.” We always keep the moisture of the oil bellow 0.5 as mentioned in the quality standardbred

Sterilization
Before bottling,we heat the bottles for 15 min in a temperature of 180Co degrees in order to make it free from live bacteria or other microorganisms. Our final products, which are packed in pallets,are also going through a fumigation process to give a quality output.

Bottling
Our bottling area is fully separated and covered from the outside. We fill the oil to the sterilized bottles directly from stainless steel store tanks. In the bottling area,supervisors are allocated to check every badge for oil moisture and other important factors that will affect the quality. After bottling,we store the bottles in a separate area, whichis fully covered and controlled from pests.

iii.Cut Cinnamon Trees are brought to the peeling shed.
iv.Cut Cinnamon Trees brought from the estate are retained for distillation process.
v.Chopping off the stem barks before scraping.
vi.The peeling operation consists of stripping the bark and preparing quills. The outer bark is first removed using a crude curved knife.
vii.The stripped stem is next rubbed briskly with a heavy brass rod to loosen the inner bark.
viii.2 cuts are made round the stem about 30 cm apart and 2 longitudinal slits are made on oppositesides of the stem. The inner bark is then carefully eased off the wood with the pointed side of the knife.
ix.The removal of the inner bark is undertaken by a small rounded knife with a point on one side to facilitate ripping. The knife is made of brass or stainless steel since other metals are said to stain the bark.
x.The removal of the inner bark
xi.The curled pieces of inner bark, are next assembled into compound quills or pipes.
xii.The compound quills are then rolled by hand to press the outside edges together and the ends are neatly trimmed with a pair of scissors.

Coumarin is known to cause liver and kidney damage in high concentrations. True Ceylon cinnamon has negligible amounts of coumarin. Ceylon Cinnamon has between 2-5 ppm of coumarin compared to Cassia (2000-5000 ppm). Ceylon Cinnamon has between 0.001-0.005 milligram of Coumarin per tea spoon. Cassia has at least1000 times more Coumarin than Ceylon Cinnamon. All other varieties of Cinnamon, except Ceylon Cinnamon, have much highercoumarin content.

Coconut husks from which WESPAC products are made fromdo in fact contain naturally formed high levels of Potassium Chloride and lesser lever of Sodium Chlorides at the primary processing stage. These salts are also nutrients in another sense, but they are reduced to a beneficial level by four basic processes. Ageing, Ageing by Influenced by bacterial introduction, washing & buffering which means the products are chemically exchange & discharge of salts prior to it being used as a growing medium.

Yes indeed, just as easily as the peat moss; maybe easier perhaps, but please take into consideration that WESPAC absorbs & retains much more water than peat moss and therefore you must add a little more water; in this instance,more liberally and quite Ideally, the soluble seed starter fertilizer in a hydration solution of around 60 LT per bale is recommended.

Answer:The pH in Peat Moss is acidic and an addition of lime is the normal procedure to balance out the pH to average pH 6.5. The average pH level found in WESPAC is slightly more alkaline;5.8-6.4, which is the ideal level for seed and plant propagation.

Answer:Wespac has a specialized blend of coir pith & buffered crushed husk, which has proved itself as an ideal substrate for Roses. The blend combines a medium high water holding capacity with an excellent level of Air Filled Porosity and fast run off of excess water which also means that the excessive salts get washed off quicker than its counterparts which is essential for high quality blooms. Finer lateral roots develop very quickly and it is known that the overall production is increased by over 20% in the first and second years of cut flower production. What’s more, the substrate lends itself to the commercial lifespan of the plant resulting in an overall saving which equals profit.

Of course! In Gerbera production, a high Air Filled Porosity with fast run off & a lower water retention level is essential. Traditionally, a grower would formulate a blend of peat and perlite, grow rocks or vermiculite 60%: 40% ratio. This feature has been remarkably “engineered” by Wespacby blending the exact proportions of pith, fibre & crushed husk to simulate an Air Filled Porosity and Water Holding Capacity required to perform in the most efficient manner.

Yes, indeed, at Wespac, we understand that most your problems and questions pose challenges; In this backdrop, we would like to assure you that we are backed by a group with a history of practical, “hands on” horticulturists who posses over two decades of tried & tested methods in your crop and a collective resources of over 300 years of horticulture & hydroponics.
