  • Where does high oleic sunflower oil come from?
  • Our sunflower oil high oleic refined organic comes mainly from Austria, Hungary, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia and France. High oleic sunflower oil is very high in oleic (monounsaturated) acid. High oleic sunflower oil is usually defined as having a minimum 80 percent oleic acid.
  • How much sunflower oil is produced in the world?
  • World production of sunflower seed in 2018?2019 was 51.46 million metric tons which is the third in worldwide oilseed production. Sunflower oil is fourth in importance among vegetable oils, amounting to 15 million metric tons in 2015?2016 and now exceeding 17 million metric tons.
  • What is the oleic content of sunflower oil?
  • The kernel represents 70% of seed weight, containing around 55% of oil. Sunflower oil of different oleic content may be classified as (i) regular (14?39%), (ii) mid-oleic (43?72%), and (iii) high-oleic (75?91%). With a good oxidative stability, regular sunflower oil finds many applications in the food market mainly as salad oil and cooking oil.
  • How is sunflower oil extracted?
  • … At the industrial level, sunflower oil production consists of extraction by press (around 70-80% of the total oil is extracted) followed by solvent extraction (hexane) of the remaining oil. Both the press oil (PO) and solvent oil (SO) are blended to produce what is known as crude oil, which must then be refined for edible purposes . …
