Exploring the Applications of Castor Oil.
A plant-derived oil used in selected industrial, manufacturing and product-development applications.
One oil. Multiple industrial applications.
Castor oil is used as a plant-derived raw material in a range of industrial and product-development settings. The right grade and specification depend on the intended use, formulation and buyer requirements.
Industrial & Technical
Castor oil may be used as an ingredient or feedstock in selected industrial formulations. Buyers should confirm technical suitability against their own specifications.
Manufacturing
Manufacturers may evaluate castor oil for use in formulations and processes where its properties meet the required performance criteria.
