Cremer Oleo, Europe’s manufacturer of oleochemical speciality esters, assumed control of the operations of the Witten facilities from the Sasol Group on 1.3.2012. The MCT oils under the brand names CremerCoor and Miglyol find widespread use in the food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics segments. Cremer Oleo has achieved a unique position as the world’s only manufacturer to operate high-performance mono plants exclusively for the production of MCT oils at the Wittenberge facilities, and GMP-certified production in two completely independent facilities in Witten and Wittenberge. In addition, the company offers a wide selection of grades with regard to technical terms (e.g. pure C7, C8 and C10 – fractions) and sustainability issues (coconut-oil-based products, Ecocert certification, membership of the RSPO) that ensure compliance with a multitude of quality standards (ISO 9001 and ISO 22000, Kosher, Halal, EP, GMP, etc.). The company’s portfolio is further complemented by a broad spectrum of ester-based specialities, such as CremerCoor, Dynasan, Imwitor, Miglyol, Softisan and Witepsol, which find a variety of uses in human and animal foodstuffs, the cosmetics and pharmaceuticals industries and in technical applications. Depending on their composition, they serve as emollients, emulsifiers, solubilisers and consistency builders, and fulfil the needs of the respective formulations in many other areas. Multifunctional production lines, a multitude of follow-up processes including a state-of-theart multi-step short-path distillation, several flaking and pelletizing lines, and the vast experience of over 100 years in the manufacture and application of special oleochemical products offer customers the solutions to meet their precise needs. Thanks to the backwards integration for the most important basic raw materials, integral dovetailing of the activities of the Witten and Wittenberge facilities and the lean structures of a medium-scale enterprise, Cremer Oleo is well positioned in the global marketplace. With a broad spectrum of active ingredients, vegetable oils, soap noodles, fatty acids, fatty alcohols and glycerines provides solutions for all customers in the cosmetics manufacturing segment.
