Ambulatum is a vegetable-based blend of Ricinus Communis (castor) seed oil and hydrogenated castor oil from Ambuja Solvex P Ltd (Booth No. 650). The material is manufactured by a proprietary processing technology to achieve a gel-like, colloid suspension with physical and formulation characteristics very similar to petrolatum. As such it is an ideal alternative to the use of petrochemical based petrolatum.
