Aarhus Oliefabrik A/S is among the world’s leading suppliers of speciality vegetable fats for the international food industry and oleochemicals for the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry. Today we are represented in more than 60 countries around the globe. Founded in 1871 as Aarhus Palmekærnefabrik, the company set out to meet the farming industry’s large demand for cattle feed produced from palm kernels. But only a few years went by before the company changed direction and became the main supplier of vegetable oils for the Danish margarine industry.

As a result the company name was changed to Aarhus Oliefabrik A/S in 1892, and oil products rapidly became the main field of business. Since then we have established a strong international network of subsidiaries and sales offices and built up close relationships with the suppliers who provide our factory with a continuous flow of high-quality raw materials. Our primary product groups are: • Cocoa butter alternatives • Fats for fillings • Fats for coatings • Cocoa butter • Bakery fats • Vegetable oils for margarine • Deep frying oils

Aarhus Olie’s products are delivered to customers all over the world. Due to our strong tradition for development, customer service and constant investment in production plant and processes, we have been able to build long-lasting customer relationships. Our ISO-approved quality management system covers all procedures from raw material arrival to the delivery of final products. That means we are able to give our customers a guarantee of uniform product quality. It was also a natural step for us to bring our production processes into line with the environmental standard DS/EN ISO 14001, a certificate we hold today. Our aim is to run our business in accordance with principles widely recognised as the way forward – beneficial to our customers, employees and our city.
