About this product
Sourced in Gujarat.
Gujarat grows the majority of the world’s castor seed, and Redone Impex sources directly from this belt. Seed is crushed, filtered and, depending on grade, refined or hydrogenated before every lot is tested against its certificate of analysis.
Whether you formulate cosmetics, blend lubricants or produce oleochemicals, we match the grade, the documentation and the packing format to your process.
