Argan oil

Argan oil (INCI: ARGANIA SPINOSA KERNEL OIL) exists only in Morocco. It is pressed from the kernel of the argan fruit, sourced from a UNESCO biosphere reserve. Folk Oils ships it industrially in direct partnership with Cooperative Afoulkifive grades, lot-by-lot analytics and B2B logistics.

Three processing levels

A controlled supply chainfrom the argan forest to your specification

Virgin / crude argan

First cold pressing to preserve unsaturated fatty acids, vitamin E, sterols and polyphenols that define Moroccan argan’s analytical signature.

Refined argan

Controlled refining to stabilize the oil, adjust colour or impurity load while keeping a usable lipid base for formulation.

Deodorized argan

Neutral scent and discreet taste for “clean beauty” bases, emulsions or food blends where organoleptic profile must stay under control.

Living heritage and lipid science

The argan tree stabilizes soils across the Souss and Anti-Atlas, hosts unique biodiversity and anchors a rural economy built on cooperative know-how.

More than 800,000 hectares of argan forest form a cultural landscape without equivalent. Hand harvesting, sun drying and careful decortication protect kernel quality for traditional millstones and modern mechanical pressing.

Nutritionally and cosmetically, the oil stands out for its balance of oleic and linoleic acid, high tocopherol content and squaleneparameters tracked in our technical files to support your claims and product stability.

Folk Oils bridges this heritage with industrial requirements: tailored filtration, contaminant control, oxidation indices and packaging from 200 L drums to 1000 L IBCs for importers and SME manufacturers.
