About Us

When it comes to vital and preventive measures relating to health in the truest sense of the word, you shouldn't withhold this from other people, but rather let them share in it.

A few years ago, our family was able to personally experience how good freshly pressed organic linseed oil can be for your health. Through these experiences and the associated conviction, Martina Cit-Kreutzer founded the company “K-Linos” in Neckarwestheim in autumn 2010 and produced small quantities of fresh, cold-pressed linseed oil, mainly for her own family and a few friends.

She repeatedly had to realize what major challenges the technical hurdles presented in the production of high-quality fresh linseed oil.

A challenging (and constantly recurring) problem is to procure the best possible raw material quality on the global market. Another difficult topic was familiarization with fat metabolism and the new scientific territory associated with it. But the fascination of researching the approximately 7,000 year old story about the healing effects of fresh linseed oil was very great. Above all, the current scientific studies, which increasingly confirm the findings, some of which are thousands of years old, reinforce the previous projects. Within the first two years of production, the efforts to produce fresh linseed oil of the highest possible quality were supported and promoted by an ever-increasing number of doctors, alternative practitioners, nutritionists and individuals.

In July 2012, “K-Linos” received organic certification through the control process and has since then only produced organic linseed oil. The experience gained up to that point and the enormously positive response led to the next generation, son Philipp Kreutzer, coming to the top of the family business in 2013. As a result, the company was aligned for the future in terms of personnel and structure.

In March 2021 the move to the new business premises in Nordheim will take place and the company name will also be changed to “K-Linos Vegetable Oil”. In addition to direct sales in Nordheim and the online shop with shipping, the freshly pressed K-Linos organic linseed oil is also available to buy in selected health food stores, farm shops and organic markets.

From summer 2022, K-Linos Vegetable Oil will offer, among other things, olive oil from Crete, dark and light balsamic vinegar and olives. The production of other high-quality oils, such as fresh pumpkin seed oil, is also planned for the future.
