RAW LINSEEDOIL

The first step is crushing Linseed to Linseedoil. With an iodine value normally between 180 and 190, Linseedoil is one of the best drying vegetable oils with a variety of applications in the coatings industry:

• ● paints and varnishes                                                             printing inks ●
  ● alkyd resins                                                                                        sealants ●
  ● linoleum                                                                               pigment pastes ●
  ● rubber                                                                                                  plastics ●

The high content of α-linolenic acid (ALA) makes Linseedoil also the richest vegetable oil in ω3-fatty acids, an essential fatty acid of growing importance and interest in our daily food and feed. ω3-Fatty acids are expected to help prevent several contemporary health problems.
