What are the benefits of olive oil as a raw material?

Medolla Iberia, S.L.: Olive oil is a very ancient, popular, renewable, and sustainable raw material. Olive trees can be grown in extreme climatic conditions, where few other woody crops survive. Olive trees do not require high amounts of water; seventy percent of the world’s olive orchards are rain-fed.
