Purity and Flavor from Nature.
At Uzakkoy, we use cutting-edge technology to preserve the purity and quality of our olive oil. In our groves in Didim Akkoy, we carefully cultivate fully ripened olives, which are processed untouched in our modern olive oil factory in the same village using a continuous system. Continuous olive oil extraction is a widely used modern method that ensures hygienic and efficient processing. Olives undergo cleaning, crushing, kneading (malaxation), and oil separation, with quality safeguarded at every step.
Olive cleaning is crucial for enhancing oil quality and ensuring equipment safety. Olives are washed in automated machines to remove foreign materials like insects, leaves, twigs, stones, and soil.
Cleaned olives are transported to the crusher via automated conveyors. While traditional systems use granite stone mills, continuous systems employ metal crushers suited for automation, turning olives into a fine paste.
The olive paste from the crusher is kneaded in a malaxer at 20–25°C for up to 30 minutes. This process separates the oil from olive cells, preparing the paste for easy oil extraction.
The olive paste is transferred from the malaxer to a decanter, which uses centrifugal force to separate water (black water), pomace (pirina), and olive oil. The oil is then sent to a separator, where it is fully separated from solids and filtered.
Our olive oils are stored in special stainless steel tanks and bottled in glass, tin, or specialized plastic containers to maintain top quality, ensuring they reach your table in their purest form.
