Ultra Premium olive oil

What do chemical analyses reveal when you interpret them correctly? 🫒 Using a detailed table of results, we present the development of an olive oil over a three-year period: improvement in quality indicators, a change in category and the attainment of a health claim. #Zeolife #zeolite #zeolifegr #oliveoil #healthclaim

Exceptional zeolite-based olive oil – N. Lygeros In the Peloponnese, the harvest has begun for the production of extra virgin green olive oil, which comes from non-irrigated olive trees that have been protected exclusively by zeolite. As a result, these olives are free from both olive fruit flies and olive scale insects. After a three-year period, during which 8 kg of zeolite has been incorporated per root per year, these organic olives meet the criteria for the Ultra Premium category. All the parameters of this zeolite olive oil fall within the limits set by this international regulation, which is constantly ... Read more

Crete must find a clever way to combine tourism, olive oil production and energy. The key ingredients for the success of this endeavour are Greek innovation, zeolite from Thrace and natural gas from southern Crete. The whole framework must be managed strategically, as critical decisions for the future will need to be taken. In other words, Crete’s endeavour is a practical one and no longer merely theoretical generalisation. There must be coordination of efforts between the Regional Authority, the municipalities and the Hydrocarbons Master’s programme at the Technological Educational Institute of Heraklion. In this way, we will see the application ... Read more

Given the latest developments in the olive oil sector, it is even more important for Greece to invest in quality in order to make a difference. All production methods that result in bulk oil will, little by little, become less and less efficient whilst simultaneously becoming more costly. When the ‘extra virgin’ category was introduced, many did not give it the attention it deserved and were subsequently forced to scramble to keep up with developments. Now, with the introduction of the new ‘Ultra Premium’ category, many remain indifferent, whilst some are already making a difference and beginning to see the ... Read more

Zeolite in olive cultivation using the incorporation method. The benefits and advantages of using natural zeolite in olive cultivation.

Chemical Analysis of Zeolado – N. Lygeros Whilst ‘zeolado (zeolite olive oil)’ was once a vision, it has now become a reality – indeed, even at the level of chemical analysis. We have thus completed the first substantive and objective stage of producing this green olive oil. It was harvested on 26 October 2013. We worked as a team on this project to gain first-hand experience of the entire process without any reservations. This is how the first trial production of zeolite oil took place. This amounted to 540 bottles of 250 ml each. Chemical analysis of the zeolite oil ... Read more
