It is beneficial for all systems of the human body – nerves, digestion, eyesight, growth of tissues, and helps in prevention of heart diseases and cancer. As a cosmetic ingredient, the germ oil has amazing healing properties - prevents scarring and speeds skin regeneration. Besides, it slows down the ageing process.
Currently, PAVA operates an expeller installed at its Rebrikha mill, which was used for manufacturing the test run of the product. The company has already certified wheat germ oil as a food ingredient, and soon, it is planned to obtain a certification for using oil as a medicinal agent.

Unique properties of the oil ensure its popularity with customers – a number of prospective partners have shown their interest in the product upon receiving the samples, and signed preliminary sales agreements with PAVA.
