Nova Industries – Castor Oil & Castor Oil Derivatives Manufacturer from India
Nova Industries is a trusted Indian manufacturer and global exporter of castor oil and castor oil–based derivatives, supplying high-performance, renewable, bio-based industrial raw materials to customers worldwide. Operating from Gujarat, India, the company serves international buyers across lubricants, greases, polymers, coatings, paints, inks, resins, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, agrochemicals, and specialty chemical industries, delivering consistent quality and dependable supply.
Castor oil is derived from Ricinus communis seeds and is chemically unique among vegetable oils due to its naturally high ricinoleic acid content (approximately 90%), which provides hydroxyl functionality combined with unsaturation. This rare molecular structure offers excellent lubricity, strong polarity, viscosity stability, thermal resistance, and controlled chemical reactivity, making castor oil a preferred industrial feedstock rather than a commodity oil. These intrinsic properties allow castor oil to serve as a reliable base for advanced chemical processing, functional fluids, and performance-driven formulations where consistency and specification control are critical.
Nova Industries manufactures and supplies a complete, integrated portfolio covering all major castor oil grades and downstream derivatives. This includes First Special Grade (FSG) Castor Oil for pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and high-purity industrial applications; Pale Pressed Grade (PPG) Castor Oil for color-sensitive cosmetics, inks, and coatings; First Pressed Degummed (FPD) Castor Oil for fatty acid splitting, esterification, and chemical processing; Commercial Grade Castor Oil (CCO) for paints, surface coatings, rubber, textiles, and general industrial use; and Castor Oil – PP for industrial lubricants and derivative manufacturing.
The portfolio further extends to Hydrogenated Castor Oil (Castor Wax) used in lubricating greases, cosmetics, polishes, and hot-melt systems; 12-Hydroxy Stearic Acid (12-HSA) widely applied as a grease thickener and in polymers, coatings, rubber processing, and personal care products; Dehydrated Castor Oil (DCO) for alkyd resins, paints, varnishes, and printing inks; and Dehydrated Castor Oil Fatty Acid for resin synthesis and specialty chemical intermediates. Nova Industries also supplies advanced castor-based fatty acids and esters, including Ricinoleic Acid for lubricants, polymers, and surfactants; Methyl 12-Hydroxy Stearate for specialty lubricants and wax systems; Methyl Ricinoleate as a bio-based lubricant and plasticizer; and Blown Castor Oil for adhesives, inks, and coating formulations.
In addition to industrial chemicals, Nova Industries supports sustainable and circular bio-economy practices through agricultural by-products, including Castor Oil Cake, Castor De-Oiled Cake, and High-Protein Castor Meal, which are widely used as organic fertilizers, composting materials, and nitrogen-rich agricultural inputs.
India’s position as the world’s largest producer of castor oil, combined with Gujarat’s strong agricultural base, advanced processing infrastructure, and efficient export logistics, enables Nova Industries to offer long-term supply stability, batch consistency, and export-ready documentation for global markets. With in-house manufacturing, strict quality control, and the capability to meet customized specifications, Nova Industries functions as a single-source partner for international buyers seeking reliable, renewable, and performance-driven castor oil solutions.
This integrated portfolio positions Nova Industries as a dependable supplier for global industries requiring consistent castor oil and castor-derived materials engineered for industrial performance, sustainability, and long-term reliability.
