Wood Pressed Oils in India & Punjab | 100% Pure Cold Pressed Oils – Bare Naturals

Wood Pressed Oils in India – Pure, Chemical-Free and Traditionally Extracted

There was a time when every Indian home had a wooden ghani in the neighbourhood. The slow turning of the wooden press. The rich aroma of fresh mustard oil filling the air. The thick, golden oil that went straight from the ghani into your kitchen — pure, natural and alive with nutrients.

That tradition never disappeared. It just got overshadowed by cheap, chemically processed refined oils that promised convenience but quietly delivered poor nutrition and hidden health risks.

Today India is waking up. Families from Punjab to Tamil Nadu, from Delhi to Mumbai are returning to what always worked — pure wood pressed oils extracted the traditional way. At Bare Naturals we have never stopped doing it the right way. Our wooden ghani facility in Hoshiarpur, Punjab produces 100% pure, chemical-free wood pressed oils — delivering the authentic taste, nutrition and wellness that your family deserves.

What Are Wood Pressed Oils?

Wood pressed oils — also known as kachi ghani oils or kolhu oils — are extracted by slowly crushing oilseeds in a traditional wooden press called a ghani or kolhu. This ancient Indian extraction method operates at low temperatures — never exceeding 40 degrees Celsius — without any chemicals, solvents or artificial processing.

The result is oil in its most natural, pure and nutritionally complete form — exactly as nature intended.

The wooden ghani process:

1. High-quality oilseeds are carefully cleaned and sorted
2. Seeds are fed into the traditional wooden ghani press
3. The ghani turns slowly — crushing seeds at low temperature
4. Fresh oil flows naturally from the press
5. Oil is filtered minimally to remove seed particles
6. Bottled immediately to preserve freshness and nutrients

Furthermore because the entire process is slow, cold and chemical-free — every natural nutrient, antioxidant, vitamin and fatty acid in the original seed is fully preserved in the final oil.

Why Wood Pressed Oils Are Better Than Refined Oils

Most cooking oils sold in India today are refined oils — processed through an industrial chain that strips them of virtually everything that made the original seed nutritious.

Here is what happens to refined oil before it reaches your kitchen:

Compare this to Bare Naturals wood pressed oils:

The choice is clear. Furthermore the difference is not just nutritional — it is something you taste immediately in your first meal cooked with pure wood pressed oil.

The Story of Wood Pressed Oils in Punjab

Punjab is the heartland of India's kachi ghani tradition. For centuries every village in Punjab had a wooden ghani — pressing fresh mustard oil, groundnut oil and sesame oil for the community. The oil was pure, fresh and deeply nourishing.

This tradition is inseparable from Punjab's food culture. Sarson da saag cooked in kachi ghani mustard oil. Makki di roti smeared with pure desi ghee. Achaar preserved in traditional mustard oil. Pakoras fried golden in cold pressed groundnut oil.

However the industrialisation of food production pushed wooden ghanis aside. Cheap refined oils flooded the market. Slowly the authentic flavours and health benefits of traditional oils disappeared from Punjab's kitchens.

Bare Naturals is bringing them back.

Based in Hoshiarpur, Punjab — one of the most fertile and agriculturally rich districts in the state — we operate a traditional wooden ghani facility that honours this heritage completely. Every oil we produce is a direct continuation of Punjab's centuries-old kachi ghani tradition — made with the same respect for purity, naturalness and quality that defined it.

How to Identify Pure Wood Pressed Oil Before Buying

Many brands claim to sell wood pressed oil but deliver adulterated or refined products. Here is how to identify genuine cold pressed oil:

✅ Label says "wood pressed" or "kachi ghani" — not just "cold pressed" ✅ Natural colour — deep amber for mustard, golden for groundnut, white for coconut ✅ Natural aroma — strong pungent smell for mustard, mild nutty smell for groundnut ✅ Slight sediment — natural particles at the bottom indicate minimal processing ✅ FSSAI certified — mandatory for all genuine food products in India ✅ Transparent brand — clear information about sourcing, extraction and testing

Furthermore always buy from brands that clearly state their extraction method, seed origin and quality testing process — as Bare Naturals does on every product.
