Company Profile

Proteco Pty Ltd was established in 1986 by Graham Helmhold B.App.Sc on the foundation that there was need for Australian made cold pressed oils in the market. At that time very little cold pressed oil was produced (namely Olive oil) within Australia. Proteco is now the only company in Australia producing such a wide range of cold pressed oils. Since this beginning, Proteco has expanded its product range to 12 different cold pressed oils and to incorporate a range of natural peanut butters and table olives. Located in "The Old Butter Factory" Kingaroy, Proteco is dedicated to producing natural and healthy products of a very high standard.

Proteco Cold Pressed Oils

By perfecting the cold pressing technique, Proteco have created a range of finest quality oils, full of natural flavour and aroma. In contrast to the large scale solvent extraction plants which strip the oil of natural antioxidants, vitamins and flavour, cold pressing is a mechanical process carried out using screw presses at ambient temperatures. Proteco Cold Pressed Oils are packaged under nitrogen to prevent oxidation and should be stored in a dark cool place.  Proteco Cold Pressed Oils can also be used to assist healing for a variety of health complaints. Consult your Doctor or Health Professional for guidance and advice.
