The Seed Oil Free Certified™ designation covers Del Llano Farms™, flagship products including Tropical High Oleic™ Fruit Palm Olein, Red NOLI High Oleic™ Palm Olein, Ahhh Love Oil™ 10L, and Udter Butter™ – Golden Butter Pan & Grill 10L. Del Llano Farms™ Seedless Oils underwent comprehensive third-party testing, verifying they are seed-oil-free and meet international benchmarks for safety, authenticity, and high-heat stability.

“We call it the Red Olive of the Tropics™, the first High Oleic Fruit Oil that outperforms seed oils in every way,” said Roberto Herrera, CEO of Del Llano Farms. “We’re ready to partner with food companies, ingredient innovators, and chefs to build healthier, more sustainable products together.”

Del Llano Farms™, Tropical High Oleic™ Fruit Palm Olein is a unique category leader in health, performance, and sustainability. With a smoke point above 450°F (232°C), it surpasses olive, canola, and avocado oils, making it the cleanest and safest non-seed oil for high-heat cooking and frying. Rich in oleic acid, Vitamin E, and high in Beta carotene, it offers superior frying performance and sustainability, yielding 10–11 tons of oil per hectare annually.

“We are excited to certify Del Llano Farms™ because it represents exactly what this movement is about, radical transparency, integrity in sourcing, and healthier options for home cooks and chefs,” said Jonathan Rubin, CEO and founder of the Seed Oil Free Alliance.

Through its alliance with S&K Oil Sales, Del Llano Farms™ is expanding bulk distribution and foodservice partnerships across the U.S. The Seed Oil Free Certified™ Seal assures chefs, restaurants, and manufacturers of verified purity, non-blending, and high-heat stability.
