    Process

    Water reduction

    Excess water is reduced by a  natural process  to combat oxidation and yeast contamination which results in mold in seeds and fruits.

    Mechanical extraction

    The seeds are  crushed and pressed slowly  using an endless screw in order to extract slowly and without heating, the oil by first cold pressing.

    Filtration

    The oil resulting from the mechanical extraction filtered out of the press, several times in order to obtain the clearest and most brilliant product possible

    NB: A sterilizing filtration by natural process (porosity diameter: 0.2 microns) can be carried out on order, to remove the residues of microorganisms.
