Frequently Asked Questions:

Double EPON is a two-layer epoxy phenolic coating applied inside the tin to create a protective barrier between the oil and the metal surface. Olive oil is highly sensitive to air, light, and metal contact — these factors can cause oxidation or metallic flavours over time. The Double EPON lining eliminates this risk by preventing any chemical reaction between the tin and the oil.

This coating is food-grade and approved for use with edible oils. It maintains the oil’s quality, taste, and aroma during long-term storage, even under varying temperature conditions. Producers prefer Double EPON tins because they provide extra durability and are suitable for both domestic and export use, ensuring the oil arrives to the customer in perfect condition.
To maintain oil freshness, fill the tins in a clean, dry environment to avoid moisture contamination. Always use proper filling equipment to prevent spillage or residue on the seal. Once filled, close the cap tightly to keep the tin airtight and prevent oxygen exposure.

Store tins in a cool, dark area, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, as high temperatures can speed up oil oxidation. When cleaning empty tins before reuse, rinse gently with mild detergent and warm water, then dry completely before refilling. Avoid using sharp objects or abrasive pads that could damage the internal lacquer.

If any dents or scratches appear inside the tin, it should not be reused for oil storage, as this could compromise the protective coating. Properly maintained tins can be reused or recycled depending on production requirements.
Rectangular tins offer several practical advantages:
  • Space efficiency: They pack neatly in cartons or on pallets, reducing transport and storage space.
  • Ease of handling: The shape makes them easier to stack, label, and pour from.
  • Presentation: Their flat sides allow for smooth application of product labels and branding, creating a professional retail look.
  • Durability: The rigid rectangular structure resists crushing or deformation during transport.
While round tins are often used for bulk oil, rectangular tins are preferred for retail-sized packaging (2–5L) and gift presentation, where appearance and usability are equally important.
