Grapoila Raspberry Seed Oil GLOW Facial Care

Grapoila cold-pressed oils - thanks to the gentle production process - fully preserve the valuable components of the raw materials. Made in Hungary from Hungarian raspberry seeds, this hydrating and mildly sun-protective daily facial oil is easily absorbed and gives a sun-kissed, radiant complexion, supported by added Vitamin E and calendula extract. With anise and Damask rose, its scent is pleasantly floral.

This product belongs to the category of upcycled foods, which are made from raw materials that would otherwise have gone to waste. Upcycling transforms by-products or surplus food into high-quality and sustainable products, thereby reducing food waste and caring for our planet's resources. In this product, the nourishing ingredient has been given a second chance to show that every bite has value. By choosing upcycled products, we fight against food waste generated during production, manufacturing, and transportation. You too, if you consume them - vote with your fork.

Producer Information

From the very beginning, at the time of founding the company, environmental protection was important to them. Along with the idea of producing high-quality, wholesome food from natural ingredients, their explicit intention was to create value from what others deemed waste. Grape pomace is a waste product of wineries, previously used at most for animal feed, yet they saw the precious, high-quality oil-containing grape seeds with excellent physiological effects in it more than 10 years ago. With this first raw material, the Zero Waste – i.e., waste-free – production of Grapoila cold-pressed oils began. During the Zero Waste production process, every part of the incoming raw materials is processed; nothing is thrown away. In the case of grape pomace, the grape skin, rich in bioactive substances, is separated from the seeds and ground after drying. The ground product thus packaged can be used to flavor cakes and creams. The seeds are also dried, and then oil is pressed from them - without heat treatment or additives - using their self-developed pressing machines. The cold-pressed oils thus obtained are healthy foods or cosmetic oils with extraordinary nutritional value, which are bottled in dark glass bottles. The sediment formed before filtering the freshly pressed oil is oil sludge, which, like the oil, is rich in essential fatty acids and vitamins, and also contains micro-particles of the seeds. This - depending on its nature - is sold in the form of gourmet cream or cosmetic mud.

From the "dry residue" of oil pressing, the pellet – which is a low-fat and low-carbohydrate, but very rich in plant protein, vitamins, and other nutrients, gluten-free material – seed flours are ground, which are excellent baking additives. The pellet is also very popular among animal feed manufacturers, so it is also sold to them for further use. Since they use only natural ingredients, the few by-products that they might not be able to utilize otherwise are dried for feed, potting soil additive, compost, or fuel. The latter, along with any green waste, goes into the biomass boiler that heats the drying system, thus closing the loop. Environmental considerations are also taken into account in the maintenance of the plant. For cleaning, they primarily use air generated by a compressor. For wiping, they rent wiping cloths from a company that extracts oil from the used cloths, which they use to heat their laundry, and they receive the clean ones back. Parts are cleaned using an organic washing system containing cleaning microorganisms that biologically break down fats and oils.

With "Zero Waste" production, they reduce their ecological footprint, are more environmentally conscious, and at the same time reduce costs.
