Golden Linseed Oil details

Origin and processing

Our golden linseeds are cultivated in warm temperate climates, where optimal sun exposure and soil conditions ensure high oil content and nutritional quality. Harvested at peak maturity, the seeds are cleaned of all foreign matter and gently dried to preserve their sensitive fatty acids. The oil is mechanically cold pressed and then filtered to remove suspended matter without compromising its purity or bioactive compounds. Every batch undergoes rigorous quality testing in certified labs to meet the highest industry standards.
