A natural preservative for leather articles. This oil
repels water and protects against stiffening and cracking. It also restores
pliability to dried-out leather – it is unsurpassed for restoring
water- hardened leather to its original softness. It looks like oil, feels like
oil, but when applied to leather, it penetrates quickly and leaves no oily
residue on the surface. It doesn't stain clothing or adjoining materials
and-unlike ordinary neatsfoot and other raw oils -is readily absorbed into
wet leather. It is also used as
an additive for industrial oils.
Lanolin is a unique substance secreted by sheep from
special sebaceous glands in their skin so as to form a natural protective
coating on the wool fibres. It is highly refined & purified natural wool grease
and originates. Although derived from an animal this unique substance, is
completely different to the body fat of animals. It has the physical
consistency of a soft grease and can also be identified as a wax.
The crude wax is removed from the wool by various washing processes and then
recovered by separators to give a product called neutral wool grease, which
after intensive refining and series of other processes yields the finished
Lanolin or Wool Wax.
Oleic Acid is produced from pure
Australian tallow, and has Product applications including cosmetic (personal
care), food and pharmaceutical ingredients and as a base ingredient for
industrial applications. We are
committed to ensure
our Oleine has batch-to-batch consistency, colour stability and low poly
unsaturated fatty acids content.
Stearic acid (systematic name, octadecanoic acid,
CH3(CH2)16COOH) is a long-chain fatty acid consisting of 18 carbon atoms
without double bonds. Studies in humans and experimental animals suggest that
ingestion of stearic acid has a neutral or cholesterol-lowering effect in
contrast to lauric, myristic and palmitic acids. Thus, there is controversy
regarding the classification of stearic acid as a “saturated fat”
for dietary recommendations.
Stearine is suitable for a wide range of applications including metal stearates, surfactants, rubber and cosmetics.
Glycerine (glycerin, glycerol) is obtained by the
hydrolysis of fats and fixed oils. The name comes from the Greek word glykys meaning sweet. It is a
colourless, odourless, viscous, non-toxic liquid with a very sweet taste and
has literally thousands of uses.
Glycerine is a source of lecithin (used in foods as a
fat emulsifier, and a vital component of all cell membrances in the body) and
of tocopherols (vitamin E). It is used in skin moisturizers, lotions,
deodorants, makeup, toothpaste, sweets and cakes, pharmaceuticals and patent
medicines, in paper manufacturing, printing ink, in textiles, plastics, and
electronic components.
Glycerine is used in the
pharmaceutical and food industries and also as a base ingredient for the
paint and plastics industries.
Fatty Acids
Fatty Acids are produced to each
customer’s specifications. The diverse applications include synthetic
rubber, soap, lubricants and surfactants.
Tallow
Tallow is produced from
animal fat which is used in a variety of animal feed, pharmaceutical and
cosmetic products, as well as to make soap and detergents.
