Our Impact
At Olivae Oleoteca, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. From the grove to the bottle, we are dedicated to ensuring that every step in the production of our organic extra virgin olive oil honors both the land and the community. Our approach is rooted in respect for nature, which is why we take every measure to minimize our environmental footprint while producing the highest quality olive oil possible.
Sustainable Farming Practices
We believe that a healthy olive grove is the foundation of exceptional olive oil. Our olives are cultivated using organic farming methods that prioritize soil health, biodiversity, and water conservation. By avoiding synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, we not only protect the environment but also nurture the rich, fertile soil.
Eco-friendly Production
We are committed to reducing our environmental impact throughout every stage of production. Our facilities are designed to operate with minimal waste and energy consumption, ensuring that we uphold our sustainability goals without compromising on the quality of our product.
- Cold-Press Extraction: We use a cold-press method that requires no heat, preserving the integrity of the oil and reducing energy usage.
- Waste Reduction: Olive pits, leaves, and waste from the olive oil extraction process are repurposed as organic compost or biomass fuel for our production facility, minimizing waste.
Packaging for a Sustainable Future
At Olivae Oleoteca, we understand the importance of sustainable packaging. Our commitment to preserving the oil’s quality is matched by our desire to reduce our impact on the planet. We carefully select eco-friendly, recyclable materials that ensure the oil reaches you in its purest form while minimizing waste.
- Glass Bottles & Stainless Steel: We exclusively use glass bottles and high-quality stainless steel containers to store and transport our olive oil. These materials are durable, reusable, and fully recyclable.
Supporting the Local Community
Sustainability isn’t just about the environment—it’s about people, too. We are deeply committed to supporting the local community in Kanina and Vlora. By sourcing olives from local farmers and investing in the preservation of traditional farming methods, we help create a sustainable economic model for the region.
- Fair Compensation: We work closely with local olive farmers, ensuring that they receive fair wages for their hard work and dedication.
At Olivae Oleoteca, sustainability is not just a trend—it is a core value that drives every decision we make.
When you choose Olivae Oleoteca, you’re not only enjoying the finest organic extra virgin olive oil—you’re also making a conscious choice to support sustainable practices that protect the environment and foster a better future for generations to come.
