Best known as a food product, rapeseed oil is also highly interesting in cosmetics due to its composition rich in essential fatty acids from the omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 groups.
At Siprès, we use rapeseed in the form of a virgin, cold-pressed vegetable oil.

History
Rapeseed originates from an ancient cross between cabbage and turnip. Introduced to Europe in the 18th century, its name comes from the Dutch koolzaad, meaning “cabbage seed”.
Highly appreciated by pollinating insects, it also plays an important agronomic role in crop rotation. After oil extraction, the protein-rich meal is used for animal feed. Beyond its plant protein content, it has many valuable uses.
