  • How rapeseed oil is made?
  • Edible rapeseed oils are obtained by pressing and extracting the seeds, followed by a food refining process (discolouration by bleaching earth and deodorisation by steam action) which preserves the properties of the oil while optimising its conservation. Rapeseed oil is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to have health benefits.‌
  • How rapeseed is processed?

  • What is rapeseed oil used for?
  • Rapeseed oil is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to have health benefits. Pressed oil and extraction oil is also used in industry, particularly for the production of renewable energy. Saipol produces Diester, a biodiesel made in France from the transesterification of vegetable oils, and Oleo100, a renewable energy from French rapeseed.‌
  • Which country produces rapeseed?
  • France is the leading European producer of rapeseed and Europe is the leading producer worldwide. This crop, which embellishes our landscapes with a yellow colour in April-May, produces seeds rich in oils and vegetable proteins. Saipol processes seeds all year round.‌
  • How much honey does rapeseed produce in France?
  • Depending on the year, rapeseed flowering is responsible for 10 to 15% of the honey harvest in France, i.e. rapeseed honey production of between 2,000 and 3,000 tonnes per year (according to the Observatoire de la production de miel et de gelée royale, FranceAgriMer).‌
  • How is rapeseed processed in saipol?
  • Saipol processes seeds all year round. Between harvesting, which generally takes place in July in the northern hemisphere, and processing, the seeds are stored by collecting bodies (cooperatives and traders) or directly on the farm by farmers. Rapeseed is a multifunctional plant with many benefits.
