About Veritas
Rooted in Sri Lanka’s coconut-growing heartland, Veritas is committed to producing coconut oil with purity, integrity, and disciplined care.
The Founder
Veritas was founded by Malintha de Silva, guided by a strong belief in honesty, care, and responsibility in food production. His vision was shaped by a growing market need for a reliable source of coconut oil, a product that is pure, safe, and beneficial to everyday health.
The Inspiration
Sri Lanka’s coconut heritage, and the role coconut oil plays in everyday life, inspired a vision to create a professionally managed operation that respects both tradition and nature. The goal was simple: to produce coconut oil that people could trust, made with care and consistency.
The Vision
Veritas was envisioned as a brand that applies modern process discipline to a traditional product, ensuring purity, freshness, and reliability while remaining deeply connected to its origins. It is not about scale for its own sake, but about doing things the right way, every time.

Our Approach
Veritas operates from a purpose-built, fully mechanised facility in Dambadeniya, located within Sri Lanka’s coconut triangle. Our production follows a controlled, end-to-end process, from sourcing to filtration, designed to ensure safety, consistency, and purity.
The facility is built to meet international standards and is scalable for future growth, while maintaining the same disciplined approach.
Our Products
Veritas Coconut Oils are produced with care and consistency, guided by the same disciplined approach across each product. Each variety celebrates its own characteristics, while they both reflect our commitment to purity, safety, and everyday reliability.
Pure Coconut Oil
Veritas Pure Coconut Oil is produced from fresh coconuts using a fully mechanised, carefully controlled process. It has a naturally deeper colour and a rich aroma, making it well-suited for regular cooking and household use. Like all Veritas oils, it is made with a focus on cleanliness, consistency, and dependable quality, and is an essential you can trust in everyday life.
Virgin Coconut Oil
Veritas Virgin Coconut Oil is extracted under lower temperatures, resulting in a clearer oil that retains more of its natural nutrients and light aroma. Thoughtfully produced and gently processed, it is ideal for those who value purity and versatility, whether for cooking, personal care, or wellness routines.
“One Oil, Many Uses.”
Veritas Coconut Oils are made to support everyday living. True to traditional household use, they are trusted across a wide range of applications.
With a name that means truth, Veritas stands for purity without pretence and quality without compromise.
