Disrupting palm oil thinking: unlock his potential growth

Palm oil is linked with planet Earth for more than 200.000 years, so linked to human beings. Palm trees are very much adapted to our planet, much more than other vegetable oil producing plants.
Please see this interesting conference done by the President Nico Roozen of NGO Solidaridad-The Netherlands: https://www.solidaridadnetwork.org/news/blog-disrupting-our-thinking-on-palm-oil. Bonabio is doing 100% of their palmoils, certified RSPO IP or SG.

24 April 2019 - BONABIO welcome all palmoil in the world to by certified under RSPO, a voluntary add-on module engaging Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) member companies to exceed the RSPO’s internationally recognised sustainability standard. RSPO NEXT was an exemple.

Palm oil advantages for agriculture & nutrition

Since 1990 developing organic oils,  Sandrine Crassous know how appreciate many palm oil benefits for our nutrition and our environment impacts:

1- Only vegetable oil with balance between saturated & unsaturated fatty acids, as mother's milk fatty acids in humans. 

2- The richest edible oil in antioxidants, so no needs to add additives

3- Very rich oil in insaponifiable matters as phytosterol, prostaglandin, tocotrienol...

4- Very stable oil in a cooking pan, hot oven: less free radicals in your food.

5- Not any GMO palm oil in the world: actual varieties are very good in it's natural way.

6- Much more satiety effect compared to other liquid oils in our food.

7- Best oil against climate change: more CO² taking on fields, excellent yields making economy on lands.

8- Hypo allergenic oil -no allergies on it-: palm oil is a pulp fruit, as olive oil (both are hypo allergenic).

9- The oil extraction have no needs of solvents nor any technological chemical.

10- Refining have no need of caustic soda (as the liquid oils need).

11- Only oil to have tocotrienols, a powerful lipid antioxidant (60 à 100mg/g)

12- Unique glyceridic structure -fatty acids over glycerol's-.

13- Only vegetable oil to be an option to toxic hydrogenated oils.

14- Only vegetable oil to be fractionated in liquid and solid oils by simple pressure.

There are other peculiarities in palm oil? Yes.

For the first time since RSPO certification began, a palm oil producer outside Southeast Asia has been certified to adhere to RSPO's principles & criteria for sustainable palm oil production. The history often repeat the way of succes: the Tequendama's first world organic palm plantation, in 1992, is now RSPO certificated, as "fully segregated identity preserved" RSPO oil. End November 2010, Colombian organic tropical crop producer had more than 4,400 hectares of its oil palm planting areas certified. The company will now add about 27,000 tonnes per year to the growing global stream of certified sustainable palm oil.

RSPO palm oil continue to expand in 2016

The combined production capacity of certified oil palm plantations and smallholders

grew strongly in 2013.
The volume of actual RSPO-certified sustainable palm oil on the market swelled from 1.3 million tonnes in 2009 to 12,89 million tonnes in 2015 (2633 RSPO members worldwide). This is going to the 3 million hectars benchmark.
While there is a delay in market uptake, about 73 percent of certified palm oil was purchased — a substantial percentage. The past year also saw strong growth in sales of certified sustainable palm kernel products. More numbers and charts are available in the online: RSPO Market Center.

RSPO certification is a reality

RSPO: sustainable palm oil production

The RSPO Principles and Criteria for Sustainable Palm Oil Production (RSPO P&C) are the global guidelines for producing palm oil sustainably. These include standards for palm oil plantations on dealing fairly with employees, smallholders and impacted communities, conserving natural resources and biodiversity, and developing new plantings in responsible ways.

Daabon organic palm oils are certified RSPO

Palm is a fruit pulp vegetable oil

Ecocert certified organic palm & palmkernel oil plantations, in nothern Colombia, complied with all the RSPO 8 principles of sustainability. All plantation impacts are now monitored: forest history, agriculture, managment, social concerns. A team of high qualified professionals have been working under the RSPO principles, on top of the certified organic farming.
