How do we produce Organic Avocado Oil?
Our sustainable value chains should result in oil of the highest quality ("extra virgin"). That is why we only use ripe fruits. Upon receipt of goods, overripe avocados are sorted out and unripe avocados are brought back for post-ripening. Categorization is done manually using the thumb test: if the fruit yields to pressure, it is ready for processing. The best avocados are allowed to continue their journey through our production facility, passing through several steps:
Avocado cleaning: Our employees wash the avocados with clean water, thus removing impurities from the skin. Chemical solvents are not used here. To avoid pressure marks, we control the operating water pressure.
Preparing the avocado for oil production
- Stoning: the paste - the buttery flesh - is separated from the seed (avocado pit) and the cellular tissue (skin).
- Malaxation: In the malaxer, the actual production begins. The machine slowly stirs and heats the paste, causing microscopic oil and water droplets to flow together. Only when the temperature and residence time are right does a first-class product emerge. In a nutshell, this is a mechanical cold pressing process that does not require any chemical additives.
- Separation: Finally, we separate the oil from the paste. This involves a complex, two-stage process that removes ultra-fine impurities. What remains is a organic avocado oil that is ready to be exported to the world - and to impress: with the highest purity, a characteristic avocado flavor and intense green tones.
In our processing facility the avocados are pressed into high-quality organic oil for retailers, food manufacturers and cosmetics producers. In our oil production process, unlike many other processors, the flesh of the fruit is freed from stone and shell. As a result, we obtain pure, high quality avocado oil. In addition, crude avocado oil and refined avocado oil are also available.
Sorting the avocados
The basis of our oil: Avocados from organic mixed cultivation
The macadamia trees of our smallholders thrive in organic mixed cultivation at the foot of Mount Kenya. In between, there is plenty of space for growing organic avocados, organic mangoes and many other fruits and vegetables. What is not needed by the smallholders for their own consumption, we want to bring gradually to the market. This will create even better income opportunities and more jobs in the Kenyan region. The smallholders live in the immediate vicinity of the production site, which guarantees short transport routes for the fruit to be processed.
