Leading the way in sustainable palm oil
As the UK’s largest importer and processor of palm oil, AAK is a leader in the global drive to promote sustainable palm oil production.
We are a founder member of the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), which since 2002 has promoted sustainable social and environmental practices in palm oil production.
Our efforts are bearing fruit in two forms: the availability of RSPO-certified segregated sustainable palm oil, and the success of the RSPO-endorsed GreenPalm certificate trading programme.
Certified Sustainable Palm Oil – Akopalma SG
AAK has been supplying sustainable materials since 2008 when we secured Europe’s first shipment of sustainably produced palm oil. It was shipped into our Hull-based refinery from a Malaysian plantation company which was the first palm oil producer in the world to have been successfully audited against the RSPO’s rigorous new sustainability criteria.
As a trusted, established supply partner with a track record stretching back more than 25 years, we supply sustainably produced palm oil under our Akopalma SG brand.
Processed to the industry-leading high quality expected from AAK, the oil is independently verified as having been sustainably produced, letting customers claim their business or brand uses sustainably produced palm oil.
Continuous innovation
Demand for CSPO is growing rapidly and we are significantly increasing our output of refined sustainable palm oil, both as a straight oil and as a blend with other oil products. Our research and development teams are continuously developing new products that contain sustainable palm oil.
We work with customers to help them achieve their sustainability objectives. Where pure, sustainable material is not yet the right option for a customer’s needs, for example where complex blends or derivatives are required, GreenPalm could be the answer.
We also offer Sustainability Clinics to guide businesses through their sustainability options.
