Rapeseed Oils
Refined Rapeseed Oil
Oil obtained from selected low-erucic-acid Brassica napus and Brassica rapa seeds. It has a balanced profile of oleic, linoleic and alpha-linolenic acids. Refining reduces odour, flavour, colour, acidity and impurities, producing a more neutral, stable and versatile oil for industrial formulations. Its main uses are in food, margarines, soft capsules, cosmetics, oleochemicals and technical applications.
