Customer's voice
Batch production
Producers operating on a limited scale and focused on artisan-quality oils can encounter large variations in the type, volume and quality of their locally sourced olives. Alfa Laval offers a wide range of equipment designed specifically to meet these challenges in batch and small-scale olive oil production.
Medium-scale production
Medium-scale producers represent a growing sector of today’s olive oil industry. Alfa Laval can support mills of this size with technology that provides all of the latest, most advanced innovations to meticulously control the process and produce the finest quality olive oils.
Industrial-scale production
Producing large quantities of olive oil means maintaining reliable, highly efficient continuous production with high yield and consistent product quality. Alfa Laval can help you meet these challenges while simultaneously shrinking your environmental impact and operating costs.
