The supply process
From husk to packed product
These photographs come from the actual supply process behind our chips, with no stock imagery. Six stages take a coconut husk from raw material to an export-ready pallet.
Step 1
Coconut husk as raw material
Everything starts with the husk, the thick, fibrous shell around the coconut that remains after the nut is harvested for food and oil markets. Husks arrive at the processing site by truck and are checked and staged before chipping.
Indonesia's coconut belt produces husks year-round, which is what makes a steady chip supply from this origin possible.
Step 2
Chipping
Whole husks are cut down into chips by chipping machines. This size-reduction step turns a tangled, fibrous shell into the compact cubes buyers recognize as coco chips.
The output at this stage is intentionally mixed; screening into defined grades comes later.
Step 3
Open-air drying
Fresh chips carry natural moisture, so they are spread across open drying yards and turned regularly under the sun. Drying makes the material stable for storage, screening, compression, and shipment.
Moisture at loading is one of the parameters export buyers specify, and it is confirmed per order.
Step 4
Size separation
Dried chips are screened into our three grades: 4–8 mm, 4–12 mm, and 4–16 mm. Grading is what turns a raw material into a specifiable input. A buyer ordering the medium grade should get the medium grade, shipment after shipment.
Step 5
Loose preparation or block compression
From here the material takes one of two routes. Loose chips are packed as they are, ready to handle at destination. Chips bound for the compressed format are pressed into nominal 5 kg blocks, a shape built for dense stacking and container loading.
Freshly pressed blocks are checked before they move on to palletizing.
Step 6
Pallet and export preparation
Blocks are stacked, strapped, and wrapped on pallets, then loaded into containers by forklift with a final check inside the box before doors close.
Packing configuration, labeling, and documentation follow what was agreed for the order. Destination requirements are verified per shipment.
What this process means for buyers
A visible process is easier to specify against. Chip grade, moisture at loading, dust and fiber share, packing format, and palletization all trace back to the stages above, and each is confirmed in your quotation rather than assumed.
