We produce our raw avocado oil in cooperation with local partners and cooperatives that source their avocados directly from plantations in Africa. The farmers' avocado trees thrive in organic mixed cultivation among many other types of fruit and vegetables in order to maintain the quality of the soil. The unripe, pear-shaped fruits ripen after harvesting until they are processed. There they are cleaned, crushed and mixed with water in the malaxer to obtain a homogeneous mass known as pulp. The oil is therefore extracted purely mechanically and without the use of chemical additives. The avocado pulp is then passed through a decanter, which separates it into its components oil, water and natural residues. Filtration ensures that any remaining suspended matter is removed from the oil before the raw avocado oil undergoes a final quality check in the laboratory in Germany.
