HIGH OLEIC SUNFLOWER OILS

Order samples!

High Oleic Sunflowers Oils (HOSO) are excellent renewable raw materials for industrial utilization. They show an high oxidative performance due to their high content of oleic acid and their very low content of polyunsatured fatty acids (PUFA). Combined with a very low content of stearic acid (C18:0) they are suitable raw materials for industrial applications like lubricants, metal working fluids, long shelf-life cosmetics or surfactants. With an oleic acid content of higher than 90 % the new 90plusÒ oil is an fine starting material for chemical syntheses. Of course high oleic sunflower oils can also be used as olive-oil-like excellent food oils or highly stable, trans-free frying oils (see Þ overview of applications).

HOSO were cultivated in Germany at about 5.000 hectares in 1999. A special quality management has been set up to guarantee best results in oil yield and highest content of oleic acid. The German Ministry of Agriculture and farmers associations are supporting pilot cultivation and efforts to enlarge this area in future, so that availability will be on an industrial level with an attractive cost-performance situation in future.

narocon is managing a FNR-sponsored project, that has been set up to identify and develop new markets for high oleic sunflower oils (HOSO). We are investigating markets and (future-) technologies, looking for purchasers and applicants of high oleic sunflower oil and its derivatives worldwide (focus on Europe).
