What Are Cold Pressed (Kachi Ghani / Wood Pressed) Oils?

Cold pressed oils are extracted by slowly crushing oil seeds at low temperatures using traditional wooden presses, also known as the chekku or kachi ghani method.

This process:

  • Avoids excessive heat
  • Does not involve chemical refining
  • Preserves the oil’s natural characteristics

The result is pure, unrefined oil, made the way oils were prepared for generations before industrial processing became common.
