Why more and more people choose to process edible oil by pressing?

When it comes to producing high-quality edible oil, manufacturers are often faced with a critical decision: pressing or solvent extraction? While both methods are widely used in the industry, pressing has increasingly become the preferred choice for those who value purity, safety, and environmental sustainability.

Pressing: The Natural, Safe, and Efficient Method

Mechanical pressing, also known as cold or hot pressing, uses physical force to extract oil from oilseeds without the use of chemicals. This method preserves the natural flavor, color, and nutritional value of the oil, making it especially ideal for premium edible oils such as sunflower, sesame, and peanut oil. Unlike solvent extraction, which uses hexane and requires further refining, pressing produces clean, unrefined oil that meets food-grade standards with minimal processing.

Why Choose Pressing Over Solvent Extraction?

1. Chemical-Free Process – Pressing avoids the use of harmful solvents, ensuring a healthier, more natural end product.

2. Environmentally Friendly – With no chemical residues and lower energy consumption, pressing is a greener alternative that aligns with sustainable production goals.

3. Simpler Equipment and Lower Investment – Pressing machinery is less complex and more cost-effective to maintain than solvent extraction systems.

4. Better for Small and Medium Enterprises – For businesses aiming for high-quality oil production without massive infrastructure, pressing offers an efficient and reliable solution.
