FANCOR® MEADOWFOAM SEED OIL

100% natural oil with extraordinary oxidative stability for skin and hair care

FANCOR MEADOWFOAM SEED OIL is extracted from the seeds of the Limnanthes Alba (Meadowfoam) plant by a mechanic extrusion process and is refined afterward. It has a light yellow color and is practically odor free.

FANCOR MEADOWFOAM SEED OIL has a unique molecular structure not found in any other naturally occurring substance. FANCOR MEADOWFOAM SEED OIL contains approximately 95% fatty acids having chain lengths of 20-22 Carbon atoms. The typical fatty acid profile is as follows: C20:1(61%), C22:1(16%) and C22:2(18%). Most importantly, the unsaturated double bonds are located at the ∆5 and ∆13 positions. A combination of lack of conjugated double bonds and carrying its natural antioxidant brings this oil extraordinary oxidative stability.

Furthermore, it is liquid at room temperature regardless of its high molecular weight. It is effective against heat breakdown and is resistant to oxidation.
