Olive oil analysis now fits in your pocket.
The Olivex analysis set and mobile app determine the purity and quality grade of olive oil at your location. You reach a result without shipping a sample or waiting on a laboratory process.
Three essentials, grounded in measurement.
Purity, quality grade and record: the three pieces of information most often requested across purchasing, sales and export processes.
You can show purity
Product blended with another oil separates in the reading. You see it before you take the batch in.
You tie the grade to a measurement
You learn what the quality grade on the label is worth while the product is still in your hands.
You have a record to return to
When a question comes in, you find which batch you looked at and what came out, without searching.
The result arrives where the decision is made.
Instead of packaging a sample, shipping it, waiting in a queue and hearing the result from someone else, you make the reading yourself — while the oil is still in front of you.
- The analysis set fits in a bag and needs no installation
- The reading is made with the camera of the phone you carry
- The result comes back as a quality grade and lands in your record

What you gain depends on who picks up the analysis set.
A grower and an exporter are asking different questions of the same reading. These pages set out the difference.

Read moreA reading takes four steps.
You know where you are from beginning to end.
The analysis set reaches you
The solution, the test dish and the dropper arrive in one box. No installation and no instrument are needed.
You drop in the oil
With the set's dropper you place a few drops of oil onto the liquid in the test dish.
You read with your phone
The app guides the capture; the state of the drops is photographed twice.
You get the result
The grade the oil falls into appears on screen and lands in your record with its batch.
Decide without going to a laboratory.
The setup requires no change to the way you work.
A result at the point of purchase
You read while the oil is in front of you. You need not hold a batch while waiting on an answer.
No extra hardware
What makes the reading is the phone your team already carries. You take on no device list with servicing and spares.
Built for one product
Olivex is built on the Spectrace approach to analysis, for olive oil alone. We know the questions this sector asks.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does using the analysis set require training?+−
No. The steps are laid out in order in the booklet in the box and in the app; anyone on your team can make a reading from the first day.
Do I need to buy a separate device?+−
No. The reading is made with the camera of the phone in your hand. You do not take on hardware that needs servicing or calibration.
What form does the result come in?+−
The app states which quality grade the oil falls into. You see where it stands, from extra virgin through to adulterated.
Does it replace the laboratory?+−
Olivex lets you make the decision in the field. In a formal certification process, laboratory analysis stays where it is; the analysis set tells you which sample is worth sending there.
Does the result only stay on screen?+−
No. Every reading is kept with its place, its time and its batch, and you can share it as a report afterwards.
Can I also read a product sold on a shelf?+−
Yes. You can make a reading anywhere you open the bottle; the product does not need to have been prepared in advance.
