Our factory
Laetitia Lafitte et toute l’équipe de production, vous présente notre usine :
Industrial performance
With a new plant built in 2017, the CAUVIN oil mill combines state-of-the-art technology, efficiency, flexibility and safety.
Storage
Thermally insulated tanks with a storage capacity of more than 1,000 tonnes of raw oils preserve the physicochemical and organoleptic characteristics of the products.
Crushing
Packaging
- A packaging capacity of 15,000 litres/hour on 4 automated lines.
- A state-of-the-art camera control system to monitor the bottle filling level, the cap crimping process and the correct positioning of the labels.
- Laser engraving of the best-before date and batch numbers on the bottles for better readability and durability.
Cauvin, a reliable and professional partner.
Quality at the heart of our concerns
Our quality team is there to ensure safety, traceability and of course quality.
Elle est composée de : Prescillia Jarque, Yann Lebot, et Florian Leroux.
L’huilerie Cauvin a bâti son système qualité selon les exigences IFS Food (International Feature Standard) qui garantissent une maîtrise de l’ensemble du process, des matières premières jusqu’aux produits finis.
This commitment is reflected in the selection of suppliers, rigorous product control at all stages and appropriate technical and human resources:
- L’huilerie Cauvin s’est dotée d’un laboratoire intégré équipé des meilleurs outils d’analyses physico chimiques lui permettant de contrôler en interne : le taux de peroxyde, l’acidité oléique mais aussi la composition en acides gras par chromatographie.
- A panel of 10 people carries out organoleptic tastings every day to select batches for supply and to check the conformity of deliveries.
- For olive oil, two IOC* certificates are required to validate a batch, one at selection and one upon delivery.
- Un plan d’analyses réalisées par des laboratoires accrédités complète le dispositif, notamment pour analyser les risques de contaminants : pesticides, métaux lourds, mycotoxines, phtalates, mosh et moah…
- Traceability is ensured in all production processes from the producer to the ultimate consumer.
*The IOC : Olive oils are subject to a specific regulatory framework governed by the International Olive Council (IOC), a committee of experts responsible particularly for the publication of commercial standards. A COI certificate, produced by an accredited laboratory, is the only guarantee of the EXTRA VIRGIN compliance of an olive oil, both at the physicochemical level and at the organoleptic level.
