THE PALM KERNEL CHAPTER

Get to know palm kernel oil.

A small kernel.
A deeper story.

Palm kernel oil comes from the seed inside the oil palm fruit. Palm oil comes from the surrounding flesh. Two different oils, one fruit. Zarenva puts the kernel at the centre of the story.

THE PALM KERNEL FILM · 1 MINUTE

From kernel to care.

Step into a forest-edge village and follow one traditional method, from the hard nut to the finished oil—and its role in soft, smooth skin.

AI-created illustrations with synthetic English narration. An educational reconstruction of one traditional method; practices vary by community. These scenes do not depict Zarenva’s suppliers.
Read the film transcript

At the forest's edge, care begins. Palm kernel oil comes from the seed inside the oil palm fruit, not its red pulp. After the fruit pulp is removed, dried nuts are cracked. The kernels are sorted, washed, and dried. Over a small fire, the dried kernels are gently roasted, then pounded into a rich paste. Clean water and careful heating release the oil. It rises to the surface and is skimmed away. The collected oil is clarified, filtered, and left to cool. In skin care, this emollient helps soften and smooth. Careful formulation and quality checks come next. Zarenva. Feel the story.
