OUR ORGANIC CASTOR OIL
Our organic castor oil is a clear liquid that sometimes has a faint yellow tint to it. Its flavour and odour are characteristically oily. Our organic castor oil contains high levels of ricinoleic acid (85-92%). In general, castor oil is highly viscous as well as highly soluble in ethanol, which is why it can be used for a multitude of different applications in cosmetics.

LEARN MORE
Castor oil is obtained by pressing the seeds of the castor tree (Ricinus communis) which is native to India and Africa. Today, castor trees grow in many other parts of the world, including in parts of the Mediterranean, the United States, Mexico and Brazil. The size of the trees differs greatly between climates. In temperate climates, castor trees typically grow to a height of 1 to 2 metres but can reach up to 13 metres in height in the tropics. The fruits of the castor tree each contain three bean-shaped seeds from which the oil is extracted.
