Certified non-GMO and GFSI compliant, we oversee the entire production and bottling process on our farm and have received several awards for our healthy and innovative products, including the prestigious SIRHA Innovation Award 2023.
Our history
Producer and processor
Since 2007, we have been growing camelina in our fields in collaboration with various Quebec producers. This Nordic plant adapts perfectly to our Quebec climate. We are constantly working to develop sustainable and eco-responsible cultivation techniques in order to produce the best camelina, while respecting our land.
Our factory
A plant dedicated to camelina: energy-responsible construction
In 2018, Oliméga finalized the construction of a factory dedicated to camelina. It is equipped with a wall of solar panels with an inner tube heated by solar energy, an innovative initiative that saves 23 tonnes of greenhouse gases each year, or even 10 cars withdrawn from the market. An innovative design produced by Enerprox Inc., a Quebec company. Another Olimega pride!
