In the late 1970s, the Group identified the vast potential of palm oil as an excellent alternative feedstock to the oleochemical industry which was then mainly based on tallow and coconut oil. Realising the opportunity provided by the abundant supply of palm and palm kernel oils in Malaysia and a preference for vegetable based oleochemicals in many industries, the Group established Southern Acids (M) Berhad in 1980 to venture into the manufacturing of fatty acids and glycerine.

With untiring efforts and perseverance, palm based fatty acids and glycerine is now widely accepted in the world market.

Today, Southern Acids exports its high quality fatty acids and glycerine to USA, Europe, Japan, China, Taiwan, Korea and other countries.

Environment friendly, sustainable development and green chemicals…these are the emerging emphasis of today’s society. Situated in the Group’s integrated palm oil complex in Kapar amidst lush green palm trees, Southern Acids is the realisation of the concept of “from green palms to green chemicals”.

The synergy arising from this concept coupled with modern equipment, skilled personnel and continuous research and development has enabled the company to lead the industry in producing high quality fatty acids and glycerine.
