DESCRIPTION

Solid fats are those that remain solid at room temperature, and most of them come from animal sources, such as butter. However, there are also some solid fats derived from plant sources that can be used as alternatives to butter or other animal fats.

Among these solid fats of plant origin are hydrogenated and refined coconut fat and hydrogenated and refined palm fat. These fats undergo an industrial process known as hydrogenation, which transforms vegetable oils into solid fats. This process involves the addition of hydrogen to the unsaturated fatty acids present in vegetable oils, converting them into saturated fatty acids, which are solid at room temperature.

Somercom offers a variety of products, including hydrogenated and refined coconut fat and hydrogenated and refined palm fat, ideal for the food and culinary industries.
