The ARISTOIL training course material in e-form provides an overview on Healthy value of VOO (vergin olive oil) and EVOO (extra vergin olive oil) and the Health claim associated to phenolic compounds (EU regulation). The document shows the results of analyzed samples and factors influencing phenolic content of EVOO. A decalogue for the production of EVOO with high phenolic content is also provided.

Product Environmental Footprint Tool (PEFMED project)
The tools facilitate the elaboration of PEF studies in the olive oil, bottled water and wine sectors, all involved in PEFMED pilot phase, in compliance with the relevant PEF Category Rules (PEFCRs). These simplified tools help assessing the product life cycle hotspots, e.g. in terms of most critical phases, processes, and impact categories, and improvement potentials.

Guide for production and quality control of olive oil with increased health protecting properties (ARISTOIL project)
A guide was developed by ARISTOIL after the study and the test phase in order to support producers and olive oil sector key players in the production of EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil) with health protecting properties. The guidelines focus on the production of olive oil with a phenolic content that fits the health claim for polyphenol concentration (250 mg/kg). Target group(s): General public Download Documents: Guide for production and quality control of olive oil with increased health protective properties (English version) Guide for production and quality control of olive oil with increased health protecting properties (Greek version) Guide for production and quality control of olive oil with increased health protecting properties (Spanish version) Guide for production and quality control of olive oil with increased health protecting properties (Italian version) See also the training course materials in e-form
