Origin: New Zealand
New Zealand Grown & Processed
This product is grown and processed entirely in New Zealand, using locally sourced crops and production standards you can trust.
Cold-Pressed Flaxseed Oil Produced for Quality and Traceability
Flaxseed oil is naturally rich in alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a plant-based omega-3 fatty acid. Because flaxseed oil contains high levels of polyunsaturated fats, careful processing and handling are important for maintaining product quality.
Midlands uses cold-pressing methods designed to minimise exposure to excessive heat, light and oxygen during production. This helps preserve flavour, aroma and nutritional characteristics while supporting product consistency.
Our flaxseed is selected for New Zealand growing conditions and processed through a dedicated oil extraction facility, giving customers confidence in quality, traceability and long-term supply capability.
Flaxseed oil can be supplied as a bulk ingredient, private label bottled product or capsule format depending on your requirements.
New Zealand Growing and Crop Expertise
Midlands is one of New Zealand's established flaxseed growers and processors, with experience spanning crop production, oil extraction and international supply. Ongoing investment in research, crop development and growing programmes helps support consistent oil quality and reliable production volumes.
What Makes a High-Quality Flaxseed Oil?
Not all flaxseed oils are produced the same way.
When evaluating flaxseed oil products or suppliers, buyers should consider:
- Whether the oil is cold-pressed
- Traceability back to the source crop
- Management of heat, oxygen and light exposure during production
- Testing and quality assurance programmes
- Packaging formats that help minimise oxidation
- Long-term supply reliability and manufacturing capability
- Country of origin and supplier transparency
These factors can influence freshness, product stability, shelf life and overall product quality across food, supplement and skincare applications.
Our cold‑pressed flaxseed oil is produced using methods designed to preserve omega‑3 content and minimise oxidation. Learn more about the science behind cold pressing and why it matters for product quality.
We also supply a range of plant-based oils including bulk hemp seed oil for food and supplement applications.
