Cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) is one of the sources of naturally occurring phenols. It is obtained from the shell of a cashew nut. About 30-35% CNSL is present in the shell, which amounts to approximately 67% of the nut. CNSL is traditionally obtained as a by-product during the process of removing the cashew kernel from the nut. The processes used are mainly hot-oil and roasting in which the CNSL oozes out from the shell. The cashew tree is cultivated globally in tropical areas such as East Africa, South and Central America and the Far East.

The world availability of CNSL is in the region of 50,000 tons/year.
