Extruded vegetable oils or even more the inherent unsaturated fatty acids and various vitamins (A, D, E, F, B17) play a great part in the conservation of our health and in the prevention form ills. We created our special SOLIO extruded vegetable oil-family considering the above mentioned facts. With the use of these oils anyone can make tasteful meals easily and quickly. Our products are not recorded as curative products but the health-giving effects may be experienced many times.

How should we use oils?

Vegetable oils are essential components of our foods; we use them since the ancient times. Certain amount of fat is necessary and crucial for the human body to function and to maintain health.

Although ingesting much more fat and vegetable oil than needed can lead to obesity, metabolic, cardiac, circulation diseases and tumour problems or joint complains. Therefore we suggest the consumption of quality vegetable oils in a reduced amount, preferably maximum 2-3 teaspoons a day. For the desired effect the mixing of various types of oils is recommended.

About us

We founded our company in 1986, with three associates and with a profile as a vegetable oil producing company. At the beginning we operated as an economic association, and only as a part-time job. After that period, from 1988 we continued our business as a main job, and in 1991 we transformed into an Ltd.

We produce vegetable oils from oily seeds with a special extrusion method at our factory. The advantage of this method contrary to the industrial procedure is that the oils in this case are free from heat treatment, solvents and chemicals.

We recognized that a healthy diet increasingly requires the humane production of vegetable oils, which is the reason why we extended our product line and our factory from year to year. As a result of the above mentioned our producing capacity is now up to 5000 litres of oil per day. Currently we are on the market with 18 different oils (for example sunflower, skinless squash seed, linseed, corn seed, wheat seed, pepper seed, oneothera seed) as own products.

In the interest of the curative power of our oils we try to find the best substrate possible, therefore we support, finance and supervise the culture of oily seeds. The yearly income of our company in 2007 was 241 million forints, with the contribution of 15 associate workers.

Customers can find our products in reform stores, and also in one of the biggest multinational network – INTERSPAR. You can find several cosmetic companies among our customers. We are also one of the certified suppliers of the Debrecen –based medicine factory, TEVA Gyógyszertár Zrt.

We realized our developments mainly form own funds, but recently we managed to win FM tenders as well. We emphasize our quality management; we constantly improve our HACCP system since 2002. In 1990 we started to export our products (to Italy, Slovenia, Slovakia, Romania, Sweden), proving that these products are competitive in abroad as well.

In 2007 we registered under the supervision of Biokontroll Hungária.
In 2008 we started to produce and deal oils from bio-squash and bio-sunflower seed oils in our factory.

About the production technology

Much of the seeds are processed as clean seeds, without the shells. Therefore the oil is more purer, free from any off-flavour, and has a typical smell and taste of the given seed. During the extrusion process, we extract the oil from the seeds with a screw-press, on 120 atm pressure and at a maximum of 40 degrees of Celsius, so the vitamins within will remain intact. The oil, leaving the press, flows into a closed, stainless steel tank, and will move on in a closed, stainless steel system. This closed system will assure the elimination of the incidental contaminations. The excellent quality is guaranteed by the carefully selected seeds, and the mechanical straining, which is executed twice, during the production process. We store the oils isolated from light and air until stripping. We don’t use any kinds of chemicals, admixtures or colouring matters, so our products fully preserve the natural form of these vegetable oils.
