The production of palm oil explained


How is palm oil extracted from the fruits? What happens at the palm oil mill, at the refinery and at the fractionation facility? And what happens to the fresh fruit bunches after the oil is pressed from the fruits? In three short animated EPOA videos the production of palm oil is visualised and explained.


In the Multilingual Communication section on the EPOA-website we have pulled together EPOA video material and videos made by the different national alliances on Sustainable Palm Oil. Select your language to see what is available or check the English language to get the complete overview of EPOA videos.
