In
the elaboration of the different products, only certified and clean
methodologies of processing are used. As a result of the use of
cold press extraction for the seeds treatment; both the oils and
the defatted flours obtained, are products that maintain intact
the active power of its natural components. The natural antioxidants
and coloring substances of the seed are preserved by long time without
needing neither additives nor chemical preservers, for these reasons
they are products of high quality, pure and 100% natural.

Considering
that the seed is the beginning of all form of life and that in its
interior there can be found biological components with the potential
to grow and to develop vigorously; the two professionals have investigated
meticulously and with special dedication the benefits and kindness
that these seeds can provide us. On the basis of this investigation
they have developed products for both uses. A Nutritional-Gourmet
Line and a Natural Cosmetic Line, giving emphasis to the development
of products that preserves the potential of the seeds.
All
these gives form to “Seed of Life”, Fontevita´s
slogan that totally represents the spirit of the company.
