The Hammond family have been farming at Redhill Nottingham since 1900 and since 2009 have been producing Borderfields cold pressed rapeseed oils. They were the first UK cold pressed rapeseed oil manufacturer to be accredited under BRC Global Food Standard and have been awarded the BRC AA standard since April 2016.

Traditional farming families from Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire have joined with the growers from the North East and Scotland to produce the best seed quality to drive the best-tasting product. Borderfields has a family of farms to draw seed from, which has aided business growth. Having a wide geographical spread, at times of poor weather and challenging growing conditions, gives more assurances. Whatever the weather, the team guarantee Borderfields quality remains the same!

Since the beginning, Borderfields oils have been sold nationally in supermarkets such as Sainsbury’s and Morrisons, plus garden centres and food delis.

With great flavours and nothing added, Borderfields oil is made using 100% British-grown rapeseed, boasting half the saturated fat of olive oil. Borderfields oil is a great source of Omega 3 and Vitamin E, and with the highest smoke point available, Borderfields is genuinely versatile.

The Borderfields range continues to develop. The Borderfields Gold Range is our latest range development, launched in 2021, all using the deliciously nutty buttery brand at the heart of it all, Borderfields Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil.

The Borderfields Gold range consists of some great flavours, including Smoked Chipotle, which infuses smokiness and heat to salads, wraps or drizzle on pizzas. Fragrant Garlic gives a strong yet smooth taste; perfect for roasts, dipping and everything in between. Sweet Basil is great for pesto and tomato-based pasta. Sicilian Lemon adds a zing to chicken, seafood and homemade cakes. Finally, Aromatic Thyme adds Mediterranean flavour to enhance veggie roasts, stews and pasta dishes.
