Palmölein — Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, we supply palm olein with RSPO Segregated (SG), RSPO Mass Balance (MB), and ISCC-EU certifications. The appropriate level depends on your sustainability commitments and buyer or brand policy requirements. Certification documents are provided with each certified order.

Palm olein prices are linked to global palm oil commodity markets. Please contact our trading team for current FOB Port Klang/Belawan or CIF destination pricing for your required volume and specification.

Yes, refined palm olein is one of the most widely used frying oils in commercial food processing, valued for its high oxidative stability, high smoke point (approximately 230°C), and balanced fatty acid profile. It is ideal for continuous deep frying of snacks, instant noodles, fast food products, and food service applications.

Our refined palm olein meets PORAM standard specifications: FFA ≤0.1%, moisture ≤0.1%, and impurities ≤0.01%. These parameters confirm suitability for food manufacturing applications and are detailed in the Certificate of Analysis.

Yes, both single-fractionated palm olein (IV ≥56, standard cooking oil grade) and double-fractionated palm olein (IV ≥60, for cooler climates) are available. Please specify the iodine value grade required when placing your enquiry, as this affects pricing and availability.

Lead times from Malaysia and Indonesia to South Asian ports are typically 10–14 days transit; to Middle Eastern ports, 12–18 days; to East/West African ports, 18–30 days. Overall order lead times including production and documentation are typically 3–5 weeks.

Yes, all palm olein we supply meets PORAM (Palm Oil Refiners Association of Malaysia) standard quality specifications — the globally recognised standard contract specification for refined palm olein accepted by buyers worldwide.

Yes, Halal certification is provided as standard with every palm olein shipment. Kosher-certified supply can be arranged upon request. Certification documents from recognised international certifying bodies are provided with each order.

Palm olein is available in ISO tanks (20,000–25,000 litres), food-grade flexitanks (16,000–24,000 litres), 200-litre drums, and 1,000-litre IBCs. Please contact us to discuss the optimal packaging format for your supply chain and storage facilities.

Yes, we provide palm olein with full supply chain traceability and EUDR compliance documentation, including geolocation data and due diligence statements required for import into EU member states. Our compliance team assists EU buyers with all documentation requirements.

RBD palm olein has significantly reduced carotenoid and tocopherol content compared to crude palm oil, as these are largely removed during refining. Residual tocopherol content is approximately 50–100 mg/kg. Red palm olein (partially refined) retains higher carotenoid levels for functional food applications.

Yes, refined palm olein is used in margarine, shortening, and spread production as part of multi-component fat blends. Its semi-solid consistency at room temperature and blend compatibility with other fats make it suitable for these applications.

Refined palm olein has a smoke point of approximately 230°C (446°F), making it highly suitable for high-heat commercial frying and food processing. Its saturated and monounsaturated fatty acid dominance provides excellent thermal stability compared to polyunsaturated vegetable oils.

Yes, ISCC-EU certified palm olein is available as a biodiesel feedstock for buyers requiring RED II compliance. GHG calculation documentation and ISCC chain-of-custody certificates are provided. Please contact us with your bioenergy feedstock requirements.

Refined palm olein has a shelf life of 24 months when stored in clean, sealed tanks away from light, heat, and moisture. Nitrogen blanketing is recommended to prevent oxidation. Recommended bulk storage temperature is 30–40°C to maintain the oil in a liquid state for easy handling.

Yes, fixed-price forward contracts and term supply agreements are available for palm olein, providing price certainty and supply security for buyers with regular procurement needs. Please contact our trading team to discuss contract volumes, pricing, and duration.

A complete documentation package is provided, including Certificate of Analysis, Certificate of Origin, Halal Certificate, Phytosanitary Certificate (where required), Bill of Lading, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, and RSPO/ISCC certification where applicable.

Yes, custom blended oils combining palm olein with sunflower, rapeseed, soybean, or other vegetable oils are available to achieve specific fatty acid profiles, nutritional claims, or functional performance targets. Please contact our technical team with your target specification and intended application.
