Fractioned coconut oil is also known as MCT oil. This is a liquid version of coconut oil, and is very commonly used in natural based lotions, creams, butters, soaps, CBD and THC tinctures, extracts, and edibles. Fractionated coconut oil is colorless and odorless. There is no physical differences between any of our three versions of MCT, it all just depends on if you want organic and if you care that one is pure coconut or one is a palm/coconut blend.
As a note, MCT/Fractionated Coconut Oil is not the same as Coconut Oil. This product has been modified to stay a liquid. On your ingredient decks you cannot list this as Coconut Oil (Cocos Nucifera). You have to list it as Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (Fractionated Coconut Oil). If you are making soap and your formula calls for coconut oil, you cannot use Fractionated Coconut Oil. Your soap bars will not process correctly.
We here at Shay have three different types of fractionated coconut/MCT for you. The difference between our three MCT’s is simply the origin of the ingredients used to make it. There is absolutely no difference in color or taste. Next to each other you would never be able to tell the difference.

The difference is that the conventional Fractionated Coconut/MCT 97226 can be sourced from either coconut or palm and is traditionally a blend of the two; it is also not certified organic. The 100% coconut sourced fractionated coconut oils are 100% coconut sourced, so no palm at all, and one is certified organic. If you are looking to create products that do not contain palm, then either of the 100% coconut sourced Fractionated Coconut Oils are what you need.
