A modern oil extraction plant operates seamlessly with the support of auxiliary structural units, ensuring a complete cycle of oilseed processing — from receiving and storing raw materials to delivering the finished products that consumers rely on. These essential units include:
Elevators
Powerful elevator complexes efficiently store and move raw materials, maintaining optimal preservation conditions
Warehouses
Advanced preparation lines streamline the initial processing stages, ensuring raw materials are adequately prepared for extraction.
Preparation Lines
Specialized warehouses store intermediate products such as meals and husks, safeguarding their quality and preventing contamination.
Liquid Storage Tanks
Dedicated bulk storage tanks store crude oils, preserving their integrity and quality until they are ready for distribution.
These integrated units support continuous and efficient production, delivering high-quality crude / unrefined pressed first-grade sunflower, rapeseed, and soybean oil products.
Manufacturing of Crude Oils
Purpose: To remove impurities like stones, dirt, and plant material.
Process: Seeds, such as sunflowers, rapeseeds, and soybeans, are cleaned by passing them through sieves and magnetic separators.
Purpose: To remove the outer husk of the seeds.
Process: The cleaned sunflowers, rapeseeds, and soybeans are cracked, and the hulls are separated by aspiration or other mechanical means.
Purpose: To prepare the seeds for oil extraction.
Process: The dehulled sunflowers, rapeseeds, and soybeans are crushed and rolled into thin flakes to increase the surface area for oil extraction
Purpose: To extract crude sunflowers, rapeseed, and soybean oil from the seed flakes.
Process: The flakes are pressed using mechanical screw presses. This step may be performed once (cold pressing) or multiple times (for higher yield), sometimes with heat application.
Purpose: To remove solid particles and impurities from the crude oil.
Process: The unrefined sunflower, rapeseed, and soybean oil is filtered to separate solids, producing more apparent oil.

Bulk Delivery
We manufacture and export unrefined Ukrainian oils such as sunflower, rapeseed, and soybean oil by bulk loading via tank trucks (24Mt) or flexi bags in 20’ containers (24Mt):
Application
Animal Feed
Provides essential fatty acids and energy, promoting healthy growth and development in livestock.
Biofuels and Industrial Lubricants
Crude rapeseed oil can be converted into biodiesel through transesterification, offering a renewable alternative to fossil fuels and used in producing biodegradable lubricants and other industrial products.
