Rapeseed Oil Production Process

Digeoris sells oils produced at the HACCP/FSSC-certified facility.
While Digeoris does not commonly sell cold-pressed oil online, we are in contact with rapeseed oil suppliers that use this organic, eco-friendly method. If you want to buy cold-pressed canola oil, mention it during your call, and we will deliver it to you.

Our rapeseed oil suppliers use a 3-step chemical extraction process:

1

Pressing

The seeds are heated to 90-120 °C and pressed into thick pulp.
2

Extraction

The pressed pulp is cut into uniform cakes and oil is extracted with n-hexane — food-safe, organic-based solvent.
3

Refining/Bottling

The oil is bottled directly or refined — depending on its future use.

Products Using Rapeseed Oil

Biodiesel

Rapeseed oil biodiesel performs better in low temperatures and is recommended for use in countries that reach the freezing point during winters.

Animal feeds

Rapeseed contains a lot of natural fats and is commonly used to improve the diet of herbivorous animals like pigs, cows, and horses. Sometimes it is also used in pet food, although animal fats are more popular.

Industrial Use of Rapeseed Oil

Traditionally, rapeseed is grown as a birdseed and a component for animal feeds. Usage as a cooking oil is limited, due to a relatively complex production process. There are several industrial greases made out of canola oil, but they are mostly inferior to the products made with animal fats.

Due to the high yield and relatively high fat content, rapeseed is also one of the best choices for biodiesel production. While it is not as popular as soybean oil, rapeseed oil biodiesel currently accounts for only 7% of the market, and its popularity constantly grows

Sending and Transporting of Rapeseed Oil

We will use either freight ships and/or heavy-duty lorries to deliver your order. Total delivery time is up to 10 days. You will receive a shipping manifest with a tracking number.
