For over a decade, Marudham Mara Chek & Oil Mill has been a cornerstone of quality and tradition in the oil industry. Established with a vision to revive the ancient art of wood-pressed oil extraction, we have dedicated ourselves to providing families with the purest, most nutritious oils available.
Our journey began more than 10 years ago, when we recognized the need for authentic, chemical-free cooking oils in an era dominated by refined and processed alternatives. What started as a small family venture has grown into a trusted name, serving thousands of loyal customers who value health and authenticity above all else.
At Marudham, we take immense pride in our traditional wood-pressing technique, also known as "Mara Chekku" or "Ghani" method. This age-old process involves crushing oilseeds in a wooden mortar, turned by bullocks or wooden machinery at low speeds. This gentle extraction ensures that the oil retains its natural aroma, flavor, and most importantly, all its nutritional benefits including antioxidants, vitamins, and essential fatty acids.
Our commitment to quality extends beyond the extraction process. We source only the finest quality seeds from trusted farmers who practice organic farming. Every batch of oil undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure it meets our high standards of purity and hygiene. Our production facility maintains the strictest cleanliness protocols, guaranteeing that every bottle of oil that reaches your kitchen is safe, pure, and wholesome.
