Palm Oil is a versatile and widely used edible oil known for its rich texture, high oxidative stability, and long shelf life. Extracted from the fruit of the oil palm, it is a staple in food manufacturing, cosmetics, and industrial applications due to its unique composition and functional properties. Palm Oil is naturally semi-solid at room temperature and offers excellent resistance to oxidation, making it ideal for frying and baking.
Its neutral flavor and smooth consistency make it suitable for a wide range of culinary uses, from cooking oils to margarine and processed foods. In the non-food sector, Palm Oil is valued for its moisturizing properties and is commonly used in soaps, creams, and other personal care products.
