Why Wood Pressed and NOT Cold Pressed:
Wood-pressed oils, known as kohlu-pressed oils, is a traditional process used to extract oil from seeds and nuts. Unlike modern mechanical or chemical methods, wood pressing is a gentle and sustainable way of extracting oils from seeds, nuts, or fruits. It involves slowly crushing raw ingredients using a wooden press, preserving their natural nutrients, aroma, and flavor.
1. Retains Maximum Nutrients
No Heat Damage – Unlike modern extraction methods, wood pressing does not generate excessive heat, preserving vital nutrients like omega fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins.
Higher Nutritional Value – The oil retains its natural enzymes, minerals, and beneficial compounds, making it healthier.
2. 100% Natural & Chemical-Free
No Chemicals or Refining – Unlike solvent-based extractions, wood pressing does not use hexane, preservatives, or artificial additives.
Pure & Unprocessed – The oil remains free from harmful trans fats and chemical residues, ensuring better absorption and digestion.
