Production & description

MCT oil is of vegetable origin, it is a mixture of triglycerides of saturated fatty acids, mainly of caprylic (octanoic) acid and capric (decanoic) acid. The fatty acids are obtained from the oil extracted from the hard, dried fraction of the endosperm of Cocos nucifera L. or from the dried endosperm of Elaeis guineensis Jacq.

A colourless or slightly yellowish, oily liquid. Practically insoluble in water, miscible with ethanol (96%), with methylene chloride, with light petroleum and with fatty oils.

Our MCT oil type V Ph. Eur. is always specified according to the latest version of the European Pharmacopoeia (Ph. Eur.). Therefore, we monitor our MCT Oil Type V Ph. Eur. according to a special test plan and have designed our complete supply chain including quality control and storage in such a way that mixing with other oils is excluded. Therefore, we can offer both MCT Oil Type V Ph. Eur. (based on palm oil) as well as MCT oil coconut based.

Sustainability & responsibility

MCT fats do not occur in nature. The valuable, medium-chain fatty acids are mainly contained in coconut and palm kernel oil. Our MCT oil type V is based on palm kernel oil. Compared to other oil plants, such as rapeseed and sunflowers, the oil palm delivers higher yields and therefore requires smaller areas of cultivation.
