The corn or maize oil is produced from the germ of the maize to be specific. The highest percentage of corn oil production is expeller-pressed (Mechanical Oil Pressing Plant) after which it is solvent extracted. Solvent extraction is done using isohexane or hexane. Once the solvent is used to extract the oil, it is evaporated from the oil and used again. Through degumming, the crude corn germ oil is refined in corn oil refinery plant. Alkali treatment can also be used to refine the resultant corn oil.

Corn oil is usually pocket- friendly as compared to other similar products. However, there are times when it is expensive mostly when it is unrefined. This is done by specialty oil producers and they do this by expeller pressing the corn oil to 100%. It is usually expensive since it has a high lower yield as compared to the solvent and expeller process. It also becomes expensive due to its smaller market share as well.
