Contact SupplierCoconut is a very versatile and indispensable food item for most people under the tropical belt. It is a complete food rich in calories, vitamins, and minerals. A medium-size nut carrying 400 g edible meat and some 30-150 ml of water may provide almost all the daily-required essential minerals, vitamins, and energy of an average-sized individual.
It has three layers: the outside layer is known as the exocarp, and the fibrous husk or mesocarp is inside of it. The thin, woody layer surrounding the actual coconut "meat" is the endocarp.
It is the hard part of the coconut that contains the “coconut meant and water”. Due to its strength, it is used for various handicrafts (buttons, lamp holders, Icecream bowls, and jewelry box). It is also used to create active carbon which can be used as industrial purifier, or barbeque briquettes.
