Geographical Spread

SPC Biodiesel Sdn Bhd is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sterling Biofuels International Limited. Its principal activities are:

To construct and operate a 100,000 tonnes per annum biodiesel manufacturing plant in Lahad Datu, Sabah; and
To manufacture and sell biodiesel to global markets – in particular, Europe.
The biodiesel will be made from palm olein (refined form of palm oil).

Strategic Location

To this end, SPC Biodiesel has acquired 10 acres of land within a purpose-built industrial park, known as the Lahad Datu Palm Oil Industrial Cluster, for the construction of the plant. This industrial park is being developed by the Sabah state government on the east coast of Sabah and is dedicated to palm oil related industries.

The location of the plant within the industrial park in Lahad Datu will allow SPC Biodiesel to take advantage of dedicated facilities, a deep water port and well established refining and oil handling infrastructure.

Feedstock & Offtake

The location of the plant in the hub of the Palm Oil region in Sabah ensures abundant supply of feedstock for the plant.

SPC Biodiesel has secured the sale of its entire production of Biodiesel to an international energy trader.

Production Technology

SPC Biodiesel utilises proven biofuels technology sourced from De Smet Engineering (SEA) Pte Ltd, part of the Desmet Ballestra Group, an international supplier of oleochemical equipment.
