Our quality
Ambition: Mogador aims to provide its customers with the very best only. For this, we meet strict quality, hygiene and safety standards when producing our argan oil.

Our efforts have been acknowledged by leading international organizations such as the DLG (Deutsche Landwirtschaft Gesellschaft, the German Agricultural Society), the AVPA in Paris, ITQI in Brussels, Monde Selection Quality in Venice and The Guild of Fine Food in England. All of them awarded Mogador’s high-quality organic argan oil.

Mogador is empathetic about using the expensive, hand-picked high quality argan seeds from organic areas and abstains from the cheap, fermented argan nuts. Our organic argan oil is made to western hygiene standards using latest technology. Cold-pressing is made slowly: Drop by drop, the argan seeds release their oil so that the precious ingredients are preserved. This results in a natural argan oil with a shelf life of 24 months.

Par excellence: Mogador Argavital ® argan oils fulfilled the DLG’s quality criteria at the DLG International Quality Competition for Organic Products 2007 and have been acknowledged as top quality by the Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft (German Agricultural Society). Both oils were given a gold medal. For many consumers, DLG awards are an important aid to decision-making. A study found that these awards are extremely likeable and inspire consumers' confidence.

Different tastes, various uses: You have the choice between two different varieties of Argavital® premium organic argan oil. First, the classic argan oil: Cold-pressed from lightly roasted argan seeds, its aroma is slightly nutty and it is best used for cooking. Secondly, the argan oil from unroasted argan seeds (triple quality). It is natural, cold-pressed and can also be used for cooking as well as for direct consumption or in cosmetics. Both varieties have been awarded by the DLG and certified organic by the BCS organic guarantee (DE-001 organic inspection body). There is even a cosmetics product line: Arganaturel®, a range of natural cosmetics made from argan oil without preservatives and without animal testing. Arganaturel® products' ingredients are purely natural and perfect for the cleansing of face, hair and body.

Mogador Bid also Arganoils as Raw Material for Diffent Uses, Cooking or Cosmetic uses.
