Flaxseed

Organic flaxseed oil, also known as linseed oil, is made from the seeds of the flax plant. It is a rich source of unsaturated fatty acids, particularly alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid. Flaxseed oil has been shown to have a number of potential health benefits, including reducing inflammation, improving heart health, and helping to lower cholesterol levels.

The seed

Flaxseed, also known as linseed, is a small, brown, nutty-flavored seed that comes from the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum). It is one of the oldest cultivated crops in the world and has been used for centuries as a food and a source of fiber. Flaxseed is a rich source of micronutrients, including vitamins and minerals, and is also a good source of fiber, with both soluble and insoluble types

Harvest

Flaxseed is typically harvested when the flax plants are in the late bloom stage, at which point the seeds are fully mature and the bolls (seed pods) have turned yellow and started to open. The plants are usually cut down using a combine harvester, which separates the seeds from the plant material. The seeds are then dried and stored until they are ready to be processed.

Production of the oil

The organic flaxseed oil is produced using the cold-pressed method. We produce this product throughout the year and are flexible in packaging from IBC to jerrycan.
