About Us
The "ISF Italy" project was born in May 2018 within the coastal storage area of SAAR in the port of Genoa. It involved the acquisition and renovation of a refinery that processes over 70,000 Mt/yr and is the Italian branch of ISF Malaysia, which is already part of the Nisshin Oillio group.
Our mission is to meet the highest quality requirements of customers by refining and selling vegetable oils directly from our parent company in Malaysia, such as palm oil. We aim to promote and inform about the consumption of palm oil worldwide.
Reliability, Sustainability, Collaboration, and Innovation are the main values that inspire us every day.
What happens inside our plant?
Bleaching: This essential process aims to reduce the pigments, metals, and impurities present in the oil. Its purpose is to prevent oxidations on the finished product, ensuring the highest quality. This result is achieved through the use of natural clays.
Deodorization: It is a technique of steam distillation under high vacuum (<1 mbar). This process allows obtaining a final product of high quality.
To maintain the highest quality of oil, storage tanks have nitrogen sealing to avoid contact with air, preserving the product from possible quality issues. The plant has a daily production capacity of approximately 300 Mt/d, which is ensured by a continuous production process.
Our products
At present, our refinery is capable of processing the following types of products based on the requirements of our Italian clients. However, with the support of our parent company and our development plans, we have the potential to develop a wide range of specific products for the food industry.
- Palm Olein (double fractioned 62/63)
- Palm Oil (RBD)
