Our Mill
COLD EXTRACTION BELOW 27°
The Sustainability Cycle at Our Mill
Olive Grove
The olive trees absorb CO₂ and protect the landscape.
Olive Mill
By-products from olive pressing are put to use: pits and pomace are recovered for energy, while vegetation water is treated to recover resources.
Packaging and distribution
Lightweight packaging and responsible logistics help to reduce emissions related to weight and transportation.
TECHNOLOGY, QUALITY AND CONTROL
Technology, Quality and Control
The Olio Carone extraction and storage facility guarantees high quality standards at every stage of the processing. Furthermore, the latest generation olive-processing machinery preserves the natural characteristics of the olives and ensures safety, hygiene, and control throughout the entire production process.
The plant operates in a continuous cycle and at a temperature below 27°C. In this way, cold extraction preserves the aromas, fragrances, organoleptic properties and nutritional values of the extra virgin olive oil.
Olio Carone monitors every stage with precision to obtain a fresh, balanced oil of superior quality.
The Phases of Processing
Olive Reception at the Mill
Our mill processes the olives within hours of harvest to preserve their freshness and quality. Careful selection of the fruit is the first step towards producing an exceptional extra virgin olive oil.
Crushing
Modern pressing systems gently process the olives to obtain a homogeneous paste. This preserves the aromatic components and the natural characteristics of the fruit.
Malaxation
The resulting paste is processed at a controlled temperature in a slow, continuous process that encourages tiny oil droplets to combine, preserving its aromas, colour and sensory qualities.
Separation of Water,
Sansa and Oil
The separation takes place using advanced continuous-cycle technologies that allow the oil to be extracted in a natural and efficient way, without altering its purity, structure, or nutritional properties.
Final Cleaning and Storage
The oil is finally filtered and stored in insulated stainless steel tanks, within air-conditioned environments protected from light and oxygen. This allows for maintaining freshness, stability and aromatic intensity over time, preserving the product’s authenticity right up to the final packaging.
Bottling
The oil is bottled to strict hygiene and quality standards, with care at every stage. Each bottle is filled and sealed carefully to protect its freshness, aromas and sensory qualities, preserving the oil’s authentic character until it reaches your table.
