Future Origins has entered a multi-year purchase agreement with Kao Corporation for its palm oil alternative, NALO. The agreement marks the company’s largest deal for sustainable C12/C14 fatty alcohol. NALO is designed as a drop-in replacement for conventional palm-derived ingredients commonly used in surfactants for detergents, soaps, and cosmetics. It will be produced at an industrial scale in the US. The agreement secures offtake for most planned capacity from Future Origins’ first commercial-scale manufacturing plant.
