Packing

Following the quality check, the extra virgin olive oil is filtered. Simple filtering is done with special filter paper, so as to remove* the humidity and the foreign matters. This is done because humidity and foreign matter are oxidation promoters and lower the quality of the oil.
The filtering procedure is automated and it is contacted at low temperatures.

Following packing of the oil, the next day standard samples are taken to the control room where they are tested and rechecked. This is the final check. The olive oil is then transported to the oil-store from where they will be distributed.
At the same time, samples are kept from each production until their expiry date.
