Vietnam’s Leading Position in CNSL Supply

Vietnam is one of the world’s largest cashew-processing countries, generating a significant volume of cashew nut and cashew shell by-products used for Cashew Nut Shell Liquid (CNSL) extraction. This agricultural strength makes Vietnam a key global supplier of CNSL for industries seeking renewable alternatives to petroleum-based materials.

3+ Million Tons

Raw cashew nuts processed annually, accounting for more than half of total global production.

Abundant By-product

Stable source for CNSL extraction

400+ Thousand Tons

CNSL supplied annually, and this is projected to increase in the coming years.

Global Exporter

Supplying CNSL worldwide, especially to Asia, Europe and the Americas

Sustainable Resource

Supporting circular and green industries

Our Role in This Ecosystem

The cashew “capital” of Vietnam is the Southeast region, where Binh Phuoc, Dong Nai leads the entire country in cashew cultivation and production.

With the advantage of being located in Vietnam’s major cashew-growing region, Tahoo Company Limited leverages this abundant raw material source to deliver consistent, high-quality CNSL supply to international partners with reliable volume and sustainable value.

We focus on Cashew Nut Shell Liquid

Cashew Nut Shell Liquid (CNSL) is extracted from cashew shell by-products and contains phenolic compounds such as cardanol, cardol, and anacardic acid, which can be chemically transformed into valuable industrial materials, providing a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based raw materials while supporting waste reduction and greener industrial production.

Key Properties and Applications

• Industrial fuel: Alternative to FO in boilers and industries such as silicate production, ceramic tiles, aluminum smelting, and clinker manufacturing.
• Chemical industry: Used in the production of high-performance coatings, scratch-resistant coatings, varnishes, solvents, and biodiesel.
• Chemical properties: Contains anacardic acid, which can polymerize and form stable structures at high temperatures.

Renewable and Sustainable Raw Material

The reason why cashew shell oil (CNSL) is considered a sustainable and renewable raw material is because it is extracted from cashew shell by-products generated during cashew processing. By utilizing this agricultural waste, CNSL contributes to waste reduction and supports the development of bio-based industrial materials.

In short, as industries increasingly move towards greener production and reduced carbon emissions, CNSL offers a viable alternative to petroleum-based resources. Its natural origin, combined with its versatility in fuel and chemical applications, makes CNSL an attractive solution for companies seeking more environmentally friendly materials.
