Bulk Red Palm Oil Supplier

Cavin Resources supplies bulk red palm oil in crude and refined forms to food manufacturers, cosmetic and soap makers, importers and distributors. Its natural reddish-orange colour comes from beta-carotene, and it is also rich in tocotrienols, a form of vitamin E, which makes it popular for both nutrition and personal care products.

Available Grades

• Crude red palm oil: unrefined, with a strong colour and aroma. Used in traditional cooking and for further processing.
• Refined red palm oil: gently refined to remove odour and impurities while keeping much of the colour and carotenoids. Suited to edible use and cosmetics.
• RSPO-certified supply: available on request.

How It Is Made
