About Us

KLK Refineries is part of Kuala Lumpur Kepong Berhad (“KLK”), an integrated palm oil company headquartered in Malaysia. We have a total of 9 Refineries and Kernel Crushing Plants located in Malaysia and Indonesia. Our team is actively involved in the midstream activity of the palm oil value chain, mainly in palm oil refining and palm kernel crushing. Together with Astra-KLK, our bulk commodity trading arm, we supply high quality palmitic and lauric based products to serve the edible oils, specialty fats, oleochemicals and biofuel industries. 

Through organic growth of established and reputable practices, our division has also expanded and diversified into downstream derivatives, supplying Specialty Oils and Fats value added products. Our products and services for Specialty Oils and Fats include cooking and frying oil, bakery and confectionery fats.

As a group, we are committed to providing sustainable products. All our products from KLK’s Refineries and Kernel Crushing Plants are 100% RSPO and MSPO SCC certified and traceable to our palm oil mills. We strive to enrich human lives and beyond by offering the best products and services to all our customers and stakeholders.
