Quality control
Some brands of Virgin coconut oil are often produced by the small cooperative producers or family members in the Far East with no quality control tests in place.
TIANA – manufactured under strict, ISO 9002 and HACCP Quality Control Certification, undergoes four quality control tests guaranteeing consistent high quality.
Certified Organic or non certified organic coconut oil?
To get the best out of your coconut oil you should always check whether the oil has the Organic Certification or not. Organic Certification means that the product is produced at a facility that is registered with one of the approved certification bodies, packed, distributed and stored in accordance with the organic standards. Besides more regulations and more inspections during importing and storing the products, which continue all the way through the distribution system to ensure that organic products do not mingle with non organic products and high Organic Standards are maintained.
There are not many brands of Virgin Coconut Oil that are Certified Organic and only few brands are registered with the UK Certification Agency and therefore do not have the UK Organic Certification approval.
TIANA – Certified Organic in the UK with Organic Farmers & Growers and the EU with Ecocert.
Production is the way that makes TIANA organic virgin coconut oil better.
If the label states - “Pure coconut oil” without specifying “virgin coconut oil” be aware that such coconut oil can be refined or hydrogenated which considerably reduces the sale price.
Other brands of virgin coconut oil can be produced by one of the following method: expeller pressed, centrifuged or cold pressed. If virgin coconut oil is expeller pressed or centrifuged then beware that such coconut oil can be produced at the higher temperatures compare with cold pressed. The raw diet states if oils are produced above 46 Degree C then important enzymes are destroyed and health benefits diminished.
TIANA – is cold pressed using the art of manufacturing stainless steel equipment that controls the lowest temperature (below 45 °C) during production. That is why TIANA is 100% raw coconut goodness, which full of important nutrients and is suitable for raw diet.
