Unpackaged olive oil

Unpackaged processing for shop owners and ordering groups: Your olive oil in a 20-litre reusable barrel

As part of our sustainable supply chain, we offer you as a shop owner the opportunity to receive olive oil in an environmentally friendly way in a 20-liter stainless steel barrel. This way, you can not only run your business sustainably, but also supply your customers and the TEIKEI community with fresh, unpackaged olive oil.

How it works:

  1. Fresh bottling: Your olive oil is freshly bottled in a high-quality 20-liter stainless steel barrel. Each filling contains 19 liters of olive oil, sealed with a protective gas that prevents the harmful oxidation of the oil when poured out. This way we guarantee the highest quality for your customers and community.
  2. Cost overview: For filling, you only pay the price of the olive oil quantity plus a deposit for the barrel. For the first order, there is also a one-off fee for the tap. You can find the exact costs in our eShop.
  3. Sales and returns: After the barrel has arrived, you can hand over the olive oil directly to your customers and the TEIKEI community. Once the barrel is empty, you can send it back to our warehouse for refilling. The cost of return shipping is already included in the original deposit cost and will be deducted from the deposit value. To arrange the return, please send an email to: bestellung.de@teikei.shop.
  4. Alternative to return: You also have the option of cleaning the barrel yourself and refilling it yourself to save additional costs. In this case, we can send you cheaper 17-litre disposable canisters that can be recycled as scrap metal.
  5. Your effort: All you have to do is clean the barrel according to your wishes and prepare it for return shipment. Alternatively, you can come to one of our filling events in person and have the barrel refilled straight away.

Reusable deposit system for bottles: Your olive oil in a reusable bottle

Some of our olive oils are bottled in special reusable deposit bottles. For these bottles we charge a deposit of 50 cents in addition to the product price. The deposit amount is shown separately in the shopping cart and in the order confirmation.

You can easily return our reusable bottles to the deposit machine for drinks bottles at participating organic retailers throughout Germany, such as BIO COMPANY, Denns BioMärkten and perhaps soon at REWE. The return system for reusable bottles is designed to protect the environment and to recycle reusable bottles efficiently.

Why reusable bottles? This is how the system works:

  1. Reusable bottles significantly reduce packaging waste because they are used multiple times and cleaned after each use.
  2. The bottles can be easily returned via deposit machines in participating organic markets to avoid long transport routes and additional costs.
  3. Our reusable pool system enables efficient return of bottles, which are refilled after cleaning, thus saving unnecessary resources.

 

The best thing to do is to buy online and return it in store.
