Bulk Desiccated Coconut for Wholesale & Commercial Supply
Desiccated coconut is bought by cut, and a cut here is a sieve specification rather than a word.
Full-fat lines state oil from 60 percent up, and reduced-fat lines run 40 to 55. Moisture sits at 3 to 3.5 percent at most.

Questions Buyers Ask
+Is it sulfited?
The published fine grade states its sulphite residue, as SO2, as nil. One fine line is specified with SO2, and two sheets give the SO2-free line a shorter shelf life than the sulfited one: 9 months against 12.
+Is there a reduced-fat grade?
Yes, in fine and extra fine: 40 to 55 percent fat, against 60 percent and up on the full-fat lines. The fat is a row on every grade's table.
+How long does it keep?
Most lines state 12 months. The published medium grade states 12 months at 10 to 15°C and 50 percent relative humidity, and warns that discoloration can start sooner in warmer storage; keep it out of prolonged heat above 30°C.
+What packs does it come in?
Bulk ships in multiwall kraft bags with a polyethylene liner, from 25 lb to 100 lb and from 8 kg to 50 kg. Consumer packs run from 250 g to 1 kg.
