Detailed Product Description

Palm oil is extracted from the nature fresh fruit bunches (FFBs) of oil palm plantations. One hectare of oil palm yields approximately 20 FFBs, which when crushed yields 6 tons of oil (including the kernel oil, which is used both for edible and industrial purposes). Crude Palm Oil (CPO), Crude Palmolein, RBD (refined, bleached, deodorized) Palm Oil, RBD Palmolein and Crude Palm Kernel Oil (CPKO) are the various edible forms of palm oil traded in the market. While Oil is the stable derivative (saturated fat, solid at room temperature) of fresh fruit crushed, Olein is relatively unstable (unsaturated fat, liquid at room temperature, but low cholesterol).
