Product Description:
Palm Oil is a carrier oil obtained from the fruit of the oil palm tree (Elaeis guineensis), one of the most widely produced vegetable oils globally. The oil is yellow to golden brown in colour with a mild, characteristic nutty scent and a smooth, semi-solid texture at room temperature that melts when warmed. Palm Oil has long been valued in soap making and cosmetic manufacturing for its texture-building and emollient properties. At Maduras Herbals, we are mindful of the sustainability concerns associated with palm oil production and source our supply with this in mind. We supply Palm Oil as a raw material for cosmetic manufacturers, soap makers, and DIY formulators looking for a versatile, texture-enhancing carrier oil.
