"Discover the traditional methods of oil extraction and how they preserve the essential nutrients that refined oils often lose.
Cold pressing is an ancient art. Unlike modern refining methods that use chemical solvents and high heat, cold pressing extracts oil at temperatures below 49°C, preserving the delicate phytonutrients, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids that make natural oils so beneficial.
When you heat oil beyond its smoke point during extraction, you break down vitamin E, polyphenols, and omega-3 fatty acids — the very compounds responsible for the oil's health benefits. Cold pressing avoids this destruction entirely.
At SVM Organic Farms, we use traditional wooden-press (Ghani) technology, running at low RPM to keep temperatures minimal. The result is an oil with its natural aroma, color, and nutritional profile fully intact.

Making the switch to cold-pressed oils is one of the simplest upgrades you can make for your family's long-term health.
