Only the best cooking oils
for our manufacturing process
In addition to the potatoes themselves, the cooking oil also
plays an important role in the quality of our products. That's why
we choose to use only the best oils at all stages of our
manufacturing process.
Only non-hydrogenated
vegetable oils
We use non-hydrogenated vegetable oil to pre-fry all our Fries and Potato Specialities.
With no trans fats and a higher unsaturated fat content, this is
more healthy than hydrogenated cooking oils.
Aviko pre-fries its entire range of frozen potato specialities
in 100% sunflower oil. This is significant, since no less than 88%
of sunflower oil is made up of mono-unsaturated and
poly-unsaturated fats, which help to lower blood cholesterol
levels, thus reducing the chance of heart disease. Hence, the
decision to pre-fry in sunflower oil represents a decision
to produce healthy and responsible food.
Guaranteed GM-free
products
Aviko only uses cooking oils which are guaranteed to be free of
genetically modified organisms (GM-free).
Furthermore, we are a member of the RSPO (Round table on Sustainable Palm
Oil). This organisation promotes the sustainable production of palm
oil.
