AmazonOil

Amazon Oil is a Brazilian-Amazonian oil-chemical company active in the cold extraction of oils from Amazonian oilseeds. The oils are used in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, food, and textile industries, in the composition of perfumes, personal care products, beauty products, dyes, and fabric softeners, and the composition of functional foods. Amazon Oil’s headquarters is in the municipality of Ananindeua, which is part of the Metropolitan Region of Belém, capital of the State of Pará. Its privileged location facilitates access to the principal rivers of the Amazon, Tocantins, and Tapajós hydrographic basins, especially Marajó Island, which is the largest fluvial-maritime archipelago in the world, with its enviable richness and diversity of oleaginous plants. The excellent infrastructure offered by the fluvial-oceanic port of Belém opens the riches of the Amazon rainforest to other parts of the world.
