VirginCold-pressedOrganic

Oil obtained from Helianthus annuus seeds with a linoleic fatty acid profile. It has an unsaturated profile, with linoleic acid typically at 48–74% and oleic acid at 14–40%. Mechanical extraction better preserves the sensory character and natural constituents of the oil, making it suitable for applications that value its original identity. Organic quality requires certified raw materials, segregation, traceability and the corresponding documentation throughout the supply chain. Its main uses are in food, mayonnaise, margarines, bakery products, cosmetics and soapmaking.
