Thanks to its supply chains directly located in Africa, closest to the raw material, and to its own green refining plant, OLVEA is now able to offer its customers biosourced and eco-refined vegetable and fish oils with a complete traceability. These oils, prized by cosmetic, pharmaceutical and food laboratories, are used in the composition of many finished products. A new industrial dimension Equipped with two refining lines with a daily capacity of 100 tonnes, OLVEA Green Technologies is one of the first green and eco-designed refining plants in Europe. The equipment and the process of this plant make it possible to purify the oils while guaranteeing the absence of cross-contamination. The tank farm and the eco-refinery meet the Food Defense requirements. Our eco-refining plant is also certified according to the FSSC 22000 standard (Food Safety System Certification), which guarantees the implementation of an efficient system of health risk management and therefore the safety of its production.

The building of an old factory has been completely rehabilitated; the demolition materials were recycled and revalorized. OLVEA Green Technologies has now 9,000m² of building, and 1,300m² of photovoltaic panels installed on the roof, from which the energy production covers 50% of the needs of one refining line. The rest of the plant’s energy supply is purchased from green electricity sources. In 2021, OLVEA Green Technologies has been recognized for its excellence in terms of CSR performance and was awarded with the Platinium Medal, highest distinction for top 1% companies globally assessed by EcoVadis! Building of 9 000m² 1 300m² of photovoltaic panels 12 millions liters of water recovered per year The green plant is equipped with numerous heat exchangers to recover and interchange heat energy at different stages of the process. OLVEA has also installed 3 rainwater storage tanks, with a storage capacity of 1 million liters, to recover up to 12 million liters per year.
