Product Description: The fatty Avocado Oil is obtained by pure expeller pressing from the fruit pulp of the ripe avocado pear (Persea Americana, resp. Persea Gratissima). The pressed oil is of green to reddish-brown color. The subsequent refining considerably reduces the free fatty acids, and a light yellow, practically odorless oils is obtained. The cold filtration (winterization) can improve the cold stability (turbity) at certain temperatures (check COA of oil to see if oil is RBDW). The main cultivation areas of the avocado tree are California, Mexico, South Africa and Israel. But today it is also grown in Central Africa and in South America.

Applications For Product: Avocado oil can be used in food and cooking applications and has a high smoke point. The unsaponifiable matter is composed of linear hydrocarbons, squalene, and phytosterols, said to have cosmetic effects (e.g. great spread-ability). Mild and skin softening, avocado oil is one of the major bases for many cosmetic skin and body care products (bath lotions, skin moisteners, creams, soaps, etc.).
