coconut oil<\/a> or palm kernel oil<\/strong>, followed by fractional distillation, which isolates and combines the C8 and C10 fractions in the required technical ratio. This oleochemical process guarantees 100% vegetable origin and full traceability of raw materials from source to delivery.<\/p>\nAt Cail\u00e0 & Par\u00e9s, we have over 60 years of experience in oleochemical production. Our in-house fractional distillation capacity ensures a stable C-0810 composition across every production run, batch to batch consistency that industrial formulators working with standardised processes depend on. This is the fundamental difference between buying from a manufacturer and buying from an intermediary.<\/p>\n

The combination of surfactant, lubricant and reactive properties makes it a versatile ingredient for formulators seeking a natural-origin alternative to petrochemical intermediates.<\/p>\n \n- Alkyd resins:<\/strong> drying modifier in industrial varnishes and paints. Provides flexibility and weather resistance.<\/li>\n
- Surfactants:<\/strong> precursor in the synthesis of non-ionic and anionic surfactants for industrial detergency and personal care.<\/li>\n
- Perfumes and flavours:<\/strong> esters derived from C-0810 are used as fixatives and carriers in fragrance formulations.<\/li>\n
- Metallic soaps:<\/strong> calcium, zinc or magnesium salts used as solid lubricants and mould-release agents in plastics and rubber processing.<\/li>\n
- Lubricants:<\/strong> base for speciality lubricants and biodegradable hydraulic fluids due to its oxidative stability.<\/li>\n
- Biocides and plasticisers:<\/strong> recognised antimicrobial activity, and esters as secondary plasticisers in PVC and engineering polymers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Compared to petrochemical equivalents, vegetable-origin oleochemicals such as C-0810 offer advantages in biodegradability, lower carbon footprint and compliance with European regulations (REACH, BPR, EU Cosmetics Regulation).<\/p>\n OTHER USES<\/strong><\/p>\nCaprylic acid in nutrition and cosmetics<\/h2>\nBeyond industrial applications, caprylic acid (C8) has well-established uses in functional nutrition and cosmetics at a raw material level:<\/p>\n \n- Precursor to medium-chain triglycerides (MCT),<\/strong> widely used in sports supplementation and ketogenic diets.<\/li>\n
- Emollient agent and vehicle in topical formulations for cosmetics and dermopharmacy.<\/li>\n
- Natural preservative with antifungal activity in food and cosmetic formulations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
For these applications, the purity specifications required differ from those of industrial uses. Our technical team can advise on the appropriate specification for each application.<\/p>\n WHY CAIL\u00c0 & PAR\u00c9S<\/strong><\/p>\nEuropean manufacturer of caprylic\/capric fatty acid<\/h2>\nCail\u00e0 & Par\u00e9s is one of Europe’s leading oleochemical fatty acid manufacturers, with its own production facilities in Barcelona. Unlike most distributors operating in the European market, we directly manufacture<\/strong> the C-0810 blend through fractional distillation of vegetable oils. This means full traceability, consistent batches and the ability to adjust specifications to each customer’s requirements, capabilities no intermediary can match.<\/p>\nWhen a European formulator needs a caprylic\/capric acid supplier with continuous supply, documented traceability and technical support, the difference between buying from a manufacturer and buying from a reseller shows up directly in product consistency and incident response time.<\/p>\n Certifications:<\/strong> ISO 9001 \u00b7 ISO 14001 \u00b7 ISO 45001 \u00b7 EcoVadis Gold \u00b7 RSPO \u00b7 ISCC \u00b7 Halal \u00b7 GMP+<\/p>\nLOGISTICS<\/strong><\/p>\nPackaging and delivery formats<\/h2>\nWe adapt the delivery format to the volume and logistics requirements of each industrial customer.<\/p>\n |
