Camanchaca manufactures fish oil at its Coronel plant, Bio Region, using sardines caught in south-central Chile.
After being caught in the deep sea, the raw material is transported to the processing plant where it is separated for human or animal consumption.
The raw material undergoes an indirect steaming process at a pressure, temperature and time set based on what is being processed. The fish from the cooker then undergoes the process of squeezing or mechanical pressing, which produces press liquor (liquid) and press cake (solid).
The press liquor is centrifuged to separate the remaining solids, which are then added to the press cake. The liquid is sent to the centrifuge where the water (stickwater) and oil separate at a temperature of 95°C.
To ensure that all the water has been removed, the oil is vacuum dried. It is then cooled to prevent water condensation on the storage tanks. Antioxidants are added, depending on customer specifications.
