Refine Castor Oil

Refine Castor Oil

Refined castor oil is a highly purified form of crude castor oil, processed to achieve a clear appearance, neutral odor, and exceptional stability. In 2026, it remains a critical raw material for high-precision industries including pharmaceuticals, advanced cosmetics, and high-performance lubricants.

  • FSG (First Special Grade): The standard refined industrial grade with low moisture and reduced acidity.
  • Pharma Grade (BP/USP/IP): Highly refined to meet strict British, U.S., or Indian Pharmacopoeia standards for use as an excipient or active ingredient.
  • Pale Pressed Grade (PPG): Extracted from the first pressing of seeds without heat, offering superior clarity and very low free fatty acids.
  • Cosmetic Grade: Extra-refined to be virtually colorless and odorless, making it ideal for high-end beauty formulations.

Refined Castor Oil (F.S.G.)

  • 100% Natural castor oil, is extracted from the seeds of castor (ricinus communis) plant. Traditionally used as a laxative, castor oil is native of Ethiopia and is produced in India, Brazil, West Indies, Africa, Asia, Europe and USA.
  • Pure, refined castor oil (F.S.G.) is a pale yellow, viscous clear liquid with characteristics like moisture 0.25% max, f.f.a.(as oleic) 1.00% max, acid value(mg KOH/g) 2.00 max, iodine value (Wijs) 82-90, saponification value (mg KOH/g)177-185, hydroxyl value 158-163, relative density@30°C 0.954-0.960 gm/ml, colour on lovibond in 5.25”cell Y-20.0 max, R-2.0 max.
  • Genuine, refined castor oil (First special grade) is used in many sectors such as pharmaceuticals, lubricants, paints, resins, grease, cosmetics, waxes, textiles, leather, polyols, surfactants, printing Inks, waterproofing additives, emulsifiers, plasticizers, pigments etc.
