No — Sunflower oil by Tesco is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The only ingredient is sunflower oil, which is a basic culinary oil and considered a minimally processed single-ingredient food under NOVA, without any additives or industrial formulations.
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
