PAO vs PFAD: do not mix the RFQ

PAO is high-acid palm oil used as industrial feedstock. PFAD is a distillate fatty acid stream from refining along the CPO chain. Short names invite mix-ups on RFQs.

Neither is PKFAD from palm kernel oil refining. Write the full product name, volume, and acceptance limits every time.

Specs are lot-based—FFA, moisture, colour, and physical state should be agreed before comparing tonne prices.

Admine sources palm oils and fatty acids for industrial buyers after the product line is named clearly.
