THE PRODUCTION METHODS
The olives are collected early, green and picked-by-hand , and within the next 24 hours are rigorously cold pressed using state-of-the-art technologies. Thanks to this procedure it is possible to improve the selection of the primary product and guarantee a more efficient product extraction that gives ultimately high quality products, full of nutrients.
Moreover Provenzani pays attention to the storage procedures, to preserve the oil fragrance and and organoleptic features over time. As matter of fact, the company has been among the first in Italy to use controlled temperature storage facilities with steel cellars satured in nitrogen: this allows to keep the oil as fresh as right after the pressing.
