Production process
The first step involves harvesting ripe Buriti fruits from the Buriti palm trees. The fruits are typically harvested when they are fully mature and have a vibrant reddish or orange color. The fruits are collected by climbing on top of the tree.
Once harvested, the outer scales and husk of the Buriti fruits are removed to reveal the inner pulp and seed. The pulp is separated from the seed, as the pulp is the one containing the oil.
Cold-pressing is used to extract Buriti oil. It involves pressing the pulp to release the oil without the use of heat. This helps retain the oil's natural properties and nutritional content.
The extracted oil is then filtered to remove any solid particles or impurities, resulting in a cleaner and clearer oil.
The filtered oil may be allowed to settle to further separate any remaining impurities that may have passed through the initial filtration.
