HydroKote® M is a standard lauric coating fat produced from palm kernel oil that is fully-hydrogenated, refined, bleached and deodorized. It has soy lecithin added.

The bland character, low irritation and excellent stability of HydroKote® M make it an ideal material for cosmetic applications. It is manufactured in USA.
