Fatty Acids
Palm Stearic Acid, PFAD, PKFAD, Rapeseed, Soybean and Sunflower Acid Oils.
Iodine value, titre, acid value and colour agreed before loading and held across consignments.
Palm kernel fractions, palm stearin and castor derivatives sized to your process, not to a generic grade.
Product Families
What We Supply
Four product families for oleochemical processors - each leading directly to grades, specifications, documents, samples, and quotation support.
Glycerine
Crude and refined glycerine with strength, purity and intended-use requirements confirmed on enquiry.
Soap Noodles
Tallow-free soap noodles, laundry and toilet soap base, transparent and translucent grades.
Oleochemical Feedstock
Palm Kernel Oil, Palm Kernel Stearin and Olein, Palm Stearin, Castor Oil, Hydrogenated Castor Oil.
Stearic Acid, Fatty Acids and Soap Noodles Bought on Numbers
Two offers of 1842 stearic acid, or of 80/20 soap noodles, can differ in titre, iodine value, TFM or colour. Bio Green Oleo works back from your line, matching stearic acid, soap noodles, glycerine and fatty alcohols to the saponification, compounding or emulsion step they feed.
Fatty Acid and Soap Noodle Grades by Titre, IV and TFM
Single, double or triple pressed stearic acid; 80/20 or 90/10 soap noodles at your target TFM; fatty alcohols by C-chain cut. We check titre, iodine value, acid value and colour against your process, so a rubber compound never pays for a cosmetic grade.
Oleochemical Lot Documents and Certificates
We gather what the producing site issues: a specification with contract limits rather than typical values, a lot COA showing titre, iodine value or TFM, an SDS for the delivery form and a vegetable or tallow feedstock declaration. For palm-based grades, ask whether RSPO Mass Balance or Segregated applies.
Physical Form Matched to Soap, Cosmetic and Rubber Plants
Plants with heated storage can take stearic acid molten and skip re-melting; bag users choose flakes, beads or pastilles; glycerine travels in drums or IBCs. We compare form, pack, MOQ and lead time across sources and flag any source change before shipment.
Rheometer, Plodder and Pilot-Batch Checks
A new source that matches on paper can still change cure time, bar texture or cream viscosity. We coordinate samples and trial quantities for your rheometer, plodder or pilot batch, then plan the commercial lot, pack and loading once the trial passes.
Checkpoints Before an Oleochemical Lot Is Loaded
Five steps that turn your titre, iodine value or TFM targets into a matched grade, a checked document set, a plant trial and a planned delivery.
Your End Use and Titre/TFM Limits
End use, limits or an accepted COA, form, volume, delivery point.
Stearic, Noodle or Alcohol Grade Proposed
Pressed class, TFM, C-chain cut and colour checked against your use.
Lot COA and Vegetable or Tallow Origin Checked
Specification, COA, SDS, TDS; ask which RSPO model applies.
Trial Batch on Mill or Mixer
Cure curve, plodder run or pilot emulsion before switching source.
Molten or Packed Delivery Planned
Heated tank, drums or bags; discharge temperature and export papers agreed.
QC Papers to Pair With an Oleochemical Quote
For buyers, formulators and QC labs in soap, personal care, rubber, plastics, lubricant and candle plants. What can be issued varies with the product, grade, feedstock and manufacturing site.

Manufacturing Processes We Supply
Oleochemical grades selected for saponification, esterification, compounding, surfactant manufacture and renewable resin systems.
Soap & Detergents
Bar soap, liquid soap and detergent manufacturers all depend on oleochemicals, but they buy at different points in the chain.
Personal Care
Personal care products such as creams, lotions, shampoos, conditioners, cleansing bars, deodorant sticks and colour cosmetics use…
Rubber & Plastics
In rubber and plastics processing, oleochemicals are used at low dosages but with large effects.
Lubricants & Greases
Lubricant and grease manufacturers use oleochemicals in three ways: as soap thickeners for greases, as base fluids or co-base fluids, and…
Candles
Stearin candles and paraffin-stearin blends rely on oleochemicals for hardness, opacity, mould release and burn behaviour.
Coatings, Inks & Resins
Coatings, printing inks and resins use oleochemicals in two ways: as building blocks, such as polyols, fatty acids and phenolic compounds…
Featured Oleochemicals
Feedstocks selected by process and specification
Epoxidised Soybean Oil (ESBO)
An epoxidised vegetable triglyceride (CAS 8013-07-8) bought on oxirane oxygen content. One of the highest-volume bio-based functional chemicals, and a route into polyols without petrochemical feedstock.
Bio-based intermediate for polyols and polyurethane systemsAcid scavenger and co-stabiliser in halogenated polymer systems
Lauric Acid
Lauric acid, systematically dodecanoic acid, is the twelve-carbon saturated fatty acid with CAS number 143-07-7. It is the principal acid of coconut and palm kernel oil and the chain length on which most foaming surfactant chemistry is built.
Lather component in bar soapsFacial cleansing foams and shaving products
Oleic Acid
Oleic acid (CAS 112-80-1) is the eighteen-carbon monounsaturated fatty acid, liquid at room temperature because of the single cis double bond that kinks its chain. Commercial grades are traded by iodine value, titre and colour.
Application-specific raw-material procurement, subject to grade approval
Cetostearyl Alcohol
Cetostearyl alcohol (CAS 67762-27-0, INCI Cetearyl Alcohol) is a blend of cetyl and stearyl fatty alcohols, usually close to equal parts. It is the standard consistency factor and co-emulsifier in creams, lotions and hair conditioners.
Emulsion thickener and stabiliser in creams and lotionsConditioning bases with cationic surfactants
PFAD (Palm Fatty Acid Distillate)
PFAD is the condensate recovered from the deodoriser during palm oil refining. Typically 85 to 95 percent free fatty acids, it is a low-cost mixed feedstock for soap, fatty acid recovery, animal feed and biodiesel esterification.
Fatty-acid recovery and splittingSaponification and esterification
Palm Stearic Acid
Palm stearic acid is not pure stearic acid but a graded blend of palmitic and stearic chains, sold by titre. Common grades are 40:60, 50:50 and triple-pressed, and the titre determines hardness, melting point and downstream behaviour.
Rubber vulcanisation activator and processing aidPVC and polyolefin lubricant and release agent
Glycerine
Glycerine (CAS 56-81-5, INCI Glycerin) is propane-1,2,3-triol, a clear, odourless, syrupy liquid with a sweet taste. It is recovered as the co-product of soap making and biodiesel manufacture, and is traded as crude or refined to 99.5 percent.
Humectant in skin care and oral carePharmaceutical syrups and topical products (pharmacopoeial grades)
Castor Oil
Castor oil is the feedstock for an entire branch of oleochemistry, because ricinoleic acid carries a hydroxyl group that ordinary fatty acids lack. That group is the entry point to sebacic acid, undecylenic acid, polyols and 12-hydroxystearic acid.
Fat splitting and fractionationSaponification
Hydrogenated Castor Oil (Castor Wax)
Hydrogenated castor oil, supplied as flake or micronised powder, is the direct precursor to 12-hydroxystearic acid, the thickener in most lithium greases. Splitting the wax releases the hydroxy acid that gives grease its structure.
Fat splitting and fractionationSaponification
Soap Noodles
Soap noodles are the semi-finished extruded pellets that bar soap manufacturers buy in place of running their own saponification. They are graded by total fatty matter and by the palm to palm kernel ratio, commonly 80:20 or 90:10.
Toilet and beauty soap barsHotel and hospitality soaps
Alkyl Polyglucoside (APG)
Alkyl polyglucoside (CAS 68515-73-1, INCI Coco-Glucoside) is a non-ionic surfactant made by linking glucose from starch to a fatty alcohol from coconut or palm kernel oil. It is fully plant-derived, readily biodegradable and unusually mild.
