Ask most people what palm kernel oil is used for, and you’ll likely get a shrug. It doesn’t get the attention that fresh palm oil does, yet it quietly shows up in soap, skincare, and food products across the country. At Cefaan Farms, our Crude Palm Kernel Oil (CPKO) is one of our most requested exports — here’s why.
Kernel Oil in the Kitchen
Refined kernel oil has a light taste and a high smoke point, which makes it a solid choice for frying and baking. It’s also used in the production of margarine, shortenings, and confectionery, where its firm texture at room temperature is exactly what manufacturers are looking for.
Kernel Oil in Skincare and Cosmetics
This is where kernel oil really earns its versatility. Its high lauric acid content gives it natural cleansing properties, making it a core ingredient in soap manufacturing. Cosmetics brands use it in lotions, balms, and hair products for its moisturising, softening effect on skin and hair.
Why CPKO from Cefaan Stands Out
Our crude palm kernel oil is extracted using modern processing equipment and checked for quality before it leaves the farm, which is what makes it suitable for export and for industries with strict input standards. We supply it to cosmetics companies, food manufacturers, and pharmaceutical producers who need consistency they can count on, batch after batch.
If your business relies on palm kernel oil as a raw material, Cefaan Farms produces it at the scale and quality export markets expect.
