At KRBL, we drive value at every end of the value chain, whether it be the rice or its by-product such as bran. Rice bran oil is extracted from rice bran, the outer layer of the rice grain, which can further be converted into nutraceutical (health food) products. It is also a good source of edible/industrial oil with an oil content anywhere between 16% to 25%. In less than 6 hours, rice bran passes through the conveyors to produce the crude form of rice bran oil which is then further sent to the refinery where crystal clear edible oil is manufactured. Rice bran oil provides healthy fats and a variety of nutrients. Its several compounds have antioxidants and anti-inflammatory effects.
