Over the past 4 years, the oleochemical business of Kao in the USA has grown steadily. Our focus is to deliver unmatched value by providing very high purity fatty alcohol along with a complimentary offering of derivatives.

Kalcol® Fatty Alcohol
Kao is one of the largest producers of fatty alcohol globally. All of our materials are 100% naturally derived from palm kernel or coconut oils. Even cuts from C-8 to C-18 are available at 98% minimum purity with the lowest acid and carbonyl values. Blended alcohol of any ratio can be achieved using Kao’s single-cut production method.
Packaging: bag, drum, ISO or tank truck, rail

Farmin® Fatty Amines
Kao is a leading producer of tertiary amines. With 5 manufacturing sites globally, Kao can produce primary, secondary and tertiary amines as well as specialty and commodity derivatives. In many cases, Kao uses its own fatty alcohol to produce amines of exceptional clarity and quality.
