Olive Oil Storage Systems

Name: Nitrogen Blanketed Olive Oil Storage Tanks | Welltech®
Brand: Welltech®

Nitrogen blanketing technology to preserve your valuable harvest with its first-day exquisite taste for years. Custom-designed stainless solutions up to 150 tons capacity.

Engineering Marvel Storage

The biggest enemies in olive oil storage are air (oxygen) and light. Welltech® tanks are equipped with special fittings suitable for evacuating the air inside and pumping Nitrogen gas instead. This technology reduces oxidation to zero. From small boutique facilities to 150-ton mega facilities, we manufacture conical or flat bottom tanks suitable for all your needs.

Olive Oil Storage FAQ

Why is nitrogen used in olive oil storage?

The contact of olive oil with air (oxygen) triggers rancidity. Since nitrogen gas is heavier than air, when pumped into the tank, it creates a protective cushion over the oil.

Should I choose a conical bottom or a flat bottom?

To rest unfiltered (fresh) olive oil, fully conical bottom tanks collect the sediment at a single point and provide easy discharge. For filtered oils, large tonnage flat-bottomed tanks are suitable.
