3. Product Overview

Castor Oil – PP (Pressed & Purified) is a naturally derived castor oil grade produced through mechanical pressing of carefully selected castor seeds, followed by purification to remove suspended solids, excess moisture, and process-related impurities. This balance of natural origin and controlled cleanliness makes PP grade suitable for applications that require dependable performance without the intensity of full chemical refining.

At Nova Industries, Castor Oil PP is manufactured under closely monitored pressing and purification conditions. The purification stage improves clarity, stability, and handling behavior while retaining the oil’s inherent ricinoleic acid functionality. This results in an oil that behaves predictably during heating, blending, and formulation—important for manufacturers seeking consistency without over-processing.

Buyers select Castor Oil PP when they need a cost-effective yet reliable base oil for formulations, chemical reactions, or processing steps. It integrates easily into existing systems and provides a stable platform for further modification or direct use across multiple industries.
