Care, from our hands to yours – From farm to plate, there are hundreds of crucial steps involved with delivering Bio Oil’s world class Flax Seed products. Our team is dedicated to maintaining our quality standards throughout the entire process, ensuring the final product is the best in the world.
Looking after our planet – As growers ourselves, we know the best results are achieved when we work with nature, not against it. For the last three decades we’ve carefully fine-tuned our operations to ensure we use only what we need and recycle everything we can to minimise our impact on the environment.
Best Practice Processing – Our processing goal is simple, to deliver the highest quality products, while minimising our impact on our environment. 100% of our products are grown and processed right here in New Zealand to strict quality standards guaranteeing they meet or exceed international nutraceutical and food safety standards.

Our Cold Pressed Oils
When it comes to producing our oil products, we’ve always strived for quality over quantity. That’s why we only use the cold pressing extraction method to gently crush our seeds with a rotating screw, allowing the oil to naturally flow out. Our meticulous procedures ensure the oil remains at low temperatures, preserving its nutritional value, authentic flavour, and aroma.
In contrast, other large-scale producers often employ solvent extraction and refining techniques, which strip the oil of vital antioxidants, vitamins, and nutrients. Using heat extracts more oil from the seed, but heat can degrade the oil’s flavour and nutritional quality.
For this reason, we do not use any heat, chemicals or solvents, and only cold press oils with passion, care and attention. Our cold pressed oils are unrefined and unprocessed, do not contain harmful solvent residues, are cholesterol free and contain natural antioxidants and nutrients that are beneficial for the body, as nature intended.
Our Facilities
Our purpose-built facilities are nestled in the heart of Ashburton, New Zealand, enabling us to work directly with our growers throughout the season. With our offices, production facilities and warehousing all contained in one large building, we can easily monitor each stage of the production cycle.
At the heart of our operation lies our processing room, where our cold press equipment, engineered exclusively for sensitive oils works its magic. We’re not in the business of mass production; instead, we craft premium artisan products in small, tailored batches. This approach affords us much greater control over the final output when compared with other large scale producers.
Our processing room is constructed with concrete block walls, blocking any harmful UV light and providing a consistently cool environment for our product. Inside, we allow our oils to settle naturally before using a natural process to remove any sediment, leaving behind, pure nutritious oil.
Certified Organic
Bio Oils NZ produces both conventional (non-organic) and certified organic products, which are strictly controlled to ensure no cross-contamination. We are certified by BioGro, New Zealand’s largest certifer for organic products. All Primary Producers and Service Providers handling organic prodciut in New Zealand must be certifed by either BioGro or Asure Quality, therefore our customers can rest assured they are buying a 100% certified organic product
