Cold Pressed Castor Oil is a pure virgin transparent Castor Oil extracted in its natural form by
pressing seeds without using steam cooking. This helps to preserve herbal and healing properties. It
is considered as one of the most valuable laxatives in pharmacy. Castor beans contain nutrient-rich
oil, which makes up 35%-55% of their weight. When pressure is applied to the beans, they release
this oil and all of the nutrients, minerals and essential fatty acids which it contains. No heat is
required to extract the oil. Simply pressing the beans provides luxurious oil, packed full of nutrients.

Commercial grade castor oil is one of the standard and most common grades of castor oil, used for many industrial applications. It is also known as the industrial grade castor oil. Commercial Castor Oil is produced by crushing steam cooked Castor seeds in expeller. Oil collected from the expeller tray is collected in settling tank is filtered for removing physical impurities.
