White Oil, also known as Mineral Oil or Liquid Paraffin, is a highly refined, clear, odorless, and tasteless petroleum-derived oil. It is composed of saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons and is available in various viscosity grades depending on the intended application. The product is extensively purified to remove aromatic hydrocarbons, sulfur compounds, and other impurities, making it suitable for use in personal care, pharmaceutical, food, and industrial applications. White Oil is prized for its excellent lubricity, moisture barrier function, chemical stability, and non-comedogenic properties.

White Oil supplied in a 162 kg drum format is typically used in bulk manufacturing and industrial-scale processing across multiple sectors.
