Lipidchem Sdn Bhd

Lipidchem Sdn Bhd is a subsidiary of Tropical Network Sdn Bhd. Trading activities, mainly buying/ selling/ export of specialty fats and oils, oleochemicals and food ingredients from Malaysian manufacturers for the export markets are the key business of Tropical Network Sdn Bhd.

In its quest for diversification from the core business activities, Tropical Network Sdn Bhd ventured into the manufacturing activities via its subsidiary, Lipidchem Sdn Bhd in 1998. There are many products of interests that can be manufactured, all of which are within the business activities and technical capabilities of Lipidchem Sdn Bhd. Of all the products, few of them are given priority. These include the powdered grade of Stearic Acid and Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT).

Lipidchem Sdn Bhd (Lipidchem) commenced production since 1998 but backed by more than 35 years of prior experience in multi-product palm oil refineries. We firmly believe in the technical breakthrough and demands in the international and local competitive market to meet our customer needs. We have expertise in product development, production, quality control and customer service with continuous improvement and innovation.

The process of making powdered Stearic Acid is simple yet complicated and sophisticated process because it is used in pharmaceutical, supplements, nutraceutical and cosmetic industries. The requirements are extremely stringent. The process of converting Stearic Acid from liquid or flakes into powder makes the finished products highly valuable as it also complies with stringent regulatory requirements.
