What Signé caméline does

Signé Caméline is the consumer brand of Olimega, a Quebec-based family-owned company founded in 2014 by Chantal Van Winden, Raymond Durivage, and other family members, which has cultivated Camelina sativa in Quebec since 2007. The business controls the full production chain — from seed cultivation in collaboration with Quebec farmers to cold-press mechanical extraction at a solar-powered processing facility built in 2018 — and produces cold-pressed virgin camelina oil with 35% omega-3 content, a 475°F smoke point, and a 30+ month shelf life derived from its naturally high gamma-tocopherol antioxidant profile. Core SKUs span virgin, butter-flavored, and toasted camelina oils; raw and roasted camelina seeds; a soy-free Shoyu sauce fermented from camelina and Quebec peas; camelina honey; and an extended portfolio of co-developed skincare, cleaning, and animal-nutrition products.
