Organic High Oleic and Linoleic Sunflower Oil

SEED PRODUCTION:

High Oleic Sunflower Seeds are produced in the province of Buenos Aires. Most of the fields are located in the same city as the crushing factory. Local farmers work with a pesticide-free way of production due to local legislation. Going Natural has developed long-term relationships with them and has certified their fields as NOP and EU organic. By managing their certifications and purchasing their productions, we take care of the supply chain from the beginning of the process.

OIL EXTRACTION:

In 2015 MBS Agroindustrias started converting an old family mill into an oil crushing plant. They developed a business building oil extraction plants and specialized in seed crushing. Gaining experience in oil crushing transformed them into oil experts. The plant works with an expeller pressing process that does not involve any chemicals, it performs the physical extraction of the seed to obtain its oil.

In 2020, Going Natural signed a joint venture to market MBS organic crude oil in overseas markets.

OIL REFINEMENT:

After several years designing and building oil extraction and refining plants, in 2017 MBS built its own refinery next to its crushing plant. Here, after obtaining the crude oil from the seeds, the oil is refined, scalded, deodorized and winterized. This refinery was specially designed for organic oil, with the aim of adding value to the expeller pressing process and turning the plant into a complete production of organic oil for human consumption.

RBDW PROCESS

Refined – Heat or steam is used to filter the oil to remove phospholipids and neutralize fatty acids.
Bleaching – Use of natural clay and diatomaceous earth to help minimize pigments, heavy metals, chlorophylls, and carotenes.
Deodorization – High temperature steaming process that helps remove unwanted components such as protein fragments and heavy metals present.
Winterizing – Cooling the ingredient which forces the waxes to solidify. The waxes are then removed by filtration, resulting in a residue-free final product.

HIGH OLEIC SUNFLOWER OIL RBDW: FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Fatty Acid Profile: These seeds were bred to have a higher % of oleic fatty acids. This monounsaturated fat content makes the oil less likely to oxidize when exposed to high temperatures. In this sense, high oleic sunflower oil has significantly lower oxidation rates than polyunsaturated oils when used for cooking methods such as industrial frying and other long-duration cooking.

High Smoke Point: High oleic sunflower oil has a high smoke point of 232°C (450°F) (6). This means that it can be heated to high temperatures without breaking down or smoking. When an oil breaks down, it can produce free radicals and toxic aldehydes, such as acrolein.

Natural/Organic/Solvent-Free: Cold pressed oil is obtained using only mechanical means, such as high pressure and heat. This method of extraction preserves the natural properties of the oil. While most oils are obtained by adding chemical solvents to the process to maximize extraction, this method is more natural and leaves us with a healthier oil.

Final product RBDW: clear sunflower oil with high oleic content, excellent oxidative stability, neutral smell and taste.
