Palm oil quality

Palm oil quality is determined by the percentage of Free Fatty Acid, the percentage of dirt, the percentage of Moisture and so on.

The generally accepted standards for good quality Crude Palm oil are as follows:

1. Free Fatty Acid – Below 5%

2. Dirt in oil Below 0.01 %

3. Moisture in oil Below 0.1 %

The palm oil fruit bunches contains high lipase activity that increases free fatty acids and necessitates post-harvest inactivation by heat treatment of fruit bunches. Even before heat treatment，it requires costly measures to limit free fatty acids quantities, which is very important for our palm oil quality.
