New year, new opportunities for sustainable palm oil

Still time to buy for 2010

Don’t forget, for end users the 2010 market is still open. Prices for certificates are extremely competitive, making this a good time to off-set your 2010 palm oil purchases while making your customers aware of sustainable palm oil production.

If so far you’ve been wondering whether GreenPalm is right for you, why not take this opportunity now? For a small financial cost, you can make a long-term investment in improving an entire industry.

Palm kernel expeller

As you may be aware, palm kernel expeller (PKE) can now be covered by GreenPalm certificates. So if you’re a producer and have been waiting for this market to open up, now is the time to take advantage of it and declare volumes of PKE.

If you use PKE or your products are associated with the material, GreenPalm offers you an additional way to prove your ethical sourcing credentials and support sustainable producers.

Our Market page is ready and waiting for the market to come to life, so let’s make sure there are some offers on the board!
