Refined, Bleached & Deodorised (RBD) Palm Olein
RBD palm olein is obtained from fractionating refined palm oil to separate liquid parts (olein) from solid parts (stearin). It is a clear yellow liquid at room temperature.
RBD palm olein is used as cooking oil as well as frying oil for food industries such as snack food and ready-to-eat food. It is also used as a raw material for margarine and shortening.

Refined, Bleached & Deodorised (RBD) Palm Stearin
RBD palm stearin is obtained from fractionating refined palm oil to separate olein from stearin. It is a white solid at room temperature, melting to a clear yellow liquid on heating.
RBD palm stearin is used in margarine and shortening industries. It is also used in soap, candles and oleochemical industries.

Refined, Bleached & Deodorised (RBD) Palm Oil
RBD palm oil is obtained from refining crude palm oil. It is a light yellow liquid and semi-solid at room temperature, melting to a clear yellow liquid on slight heating.
RBD palm oil is used as frying oil for food industries such as instant noodles and snack food. It can also be used in manufacture of margarine, shortening, vanaspathy, ice cream, condensed milk and soap.

Palm Fatty Acid Distillate
Palm fatty acid distillate (“PFAD”) is a by-product from refining crude palm oil. It is a light brown solid at room temperature, melting to a brown liquid on heating.
Palm fatty acid distillate is used in soap industries, animal feed industries and as raw materials for oleochemical industries. Vitamin E can be extracted from PFAD.
