About Our Fine Chemical Business

▶ Nisshin OilliO Group’s Fine Chemical Business

 

 In the Nisshin OilliO Group’s fine chemicals business, our core products are ester oils. Ester oils are oil components obtained through a dehydration reaction between carboxylic acids (−COOH) and alcohols (−OH). Leveraging our accumulated expertise in structural design, synthesis, and refining, we tailor the functions of ester oils to meet user needs, enabling us to serve a wide range of fields, including cosmetics, food, pharmaceuticals, and industrial applications.

▶ About the Fine Chemical Business

 
 In cosmetics, a wide range of performance attributes—such as sensorial feel, color payoff, gloss, and moisture retention—are required, and ester oils are essential to achieve them. At the Nisshin OilliO Group, we combine raw materials with diverse structures to develop ester oils that provide a broad range of functions.
 We are also committed to environmentally conscious product development, including the use of plant‑derived materials and the acquisition of relevant certifications. With this approach, we deliver reliable, high‑performing solutions and support our customers’ sustainability goals in Japan and worldwide.
