Exoos was born from Italprogetti, a company with over 200 professionals, nearly 20,000 square meters of production facilities, and orders in over 100 countries. Since 2005, we have had a division dedicated exclusively to the filtration of edible oils: twenty years of experience in the field, in mills of all sizes, in Italy and around the world.
Over the years, we've gained firsthand knowledge of the critical aspects of the process: oils that are difficult to filter, excessive leaks, systems shut down in the middle of the season, filter sheets that need to be managed and disposed of. Each installation has added something to this experience. Choosing Exoos means having access to this wealth of experience. Our technical team is available to analyze your specific situation, even the most complex, and identify the process solution best suited to your oil.
The plant
1
Precoat/Slurry Tank
For the formation of the initial panel and the dosage of adjuvants during filtration.
2
Filtered oil tank
The filtered oil is collected in a tank, to then be stored or bottled.
3
Electrical panel
Machine control center equipped with PLC, 5 inverters, automatic valve control group, sensor management and all related wiring.
4
Touch control panel
From this control panel it is possible to manage all the parameters of the machine and the filtration cycle.
5
Filter press
The super compact design of the filter press includes: the new series of filter plates and the patented system for the perfect closure of the plate pack without any dripping.
6
Oil inlet
DIN quick coupling also for flexible pipes adaptable to the most common formats upon request.
7
Heat exchanger
The use of the heat exchanger allows the oil to be filtered at the ideal temperature, always guaranteeing the highest quality of the filtered extra virgin olive oil.
8
Conveyor
The exhausted panels are collected by a conveyor, allowing them to accumulate in an external bin.
9
Wheels
The entire system is equipped with wheels with brakes, for easy movement.
10
Volumetric pumps
The Exoos system is equipped with 3 volumetric pumps that make it self-sufficient for suction, dosing and relaunching operations (it does not require external pumps).
11
Filtered oil outlet
DIN quick coupling also for flexible pipes adaptable to the most common formats upon request.
The system and its management software are designed and manufactured by Italprogetti's in-house staff, with complete traceability of every stage of the process.
Each system is carefully tested by our technicians and is ready for immediate use once the simple electrical and pneumatic connections have been made.

Advantages
The Exoos range of filter presses offers advanced and compact filtration solutions, combining efficiency and automation with quality and cleanliness in a single system.
Effective and efficient filtration
Immediate brightening and maintenance of qualitative characteristics, even on freshly extracted extra virgin olive oils.
Simple and intuitive operation
Dedicated software and user-friendly interface, for a practical and hassle-free operating experience.
Oil leaks dramatically reduced
More than 10 times lower than traditional systems, oil losses are less than 0.3 kg per 100 kg of filtrate.
Reduced contact between oil and oxygen
No dripping and the ability to operate in a controlled atmosphere with nitrogen, preserving freshness and quality.
Accurate control of filtration temperature
It optimizes the quality of the process and immediately slows down degradation phenomena, both enzymatic and chemical-oxidative.
Environmental sustainability
Energy efficiency, significant savings on filter materials and improved quality of filter residues.
Ease of unloading and cleaning operations
Quick removal of residues and always clean filter for the next cycle (no contamination between cycles).
Focus
1
THE SOFTWARE
Software for managing the filtration cycle with data archiving,
to ensure full traceability of the process.
The process is managed automatically, minimizing human error.
2
THE FILTER PRESS
Filter press with stainless steel structure, pack of filter plates
and integrated conveyor for unloading the adjuvants.
The patented closing system prevents drips and guarantees
a compact and functional design.
3
HEAT EXCHANGE
Integrated heat exchange system that maintains
the optimal filtration temperature (18–20 °C),
heating or cooling the oil as needed.
It guarantees a high quality filtrate even from freshly extracted oils
and can also operate in heat exchange only mode.
Optional
1
CHILLER
Dedicated chiller, also available in heat pump version,
which guarantees filtration temperature stability, operational continuity, and greater energy efficiency. Sized based on the required temperature difference and operating flow rate.
2
PNEUMATIC LOADING OF CELLULOSE
The pure cellulose is loaded into the tanks via a pneumatic suction system
which simplifies and speeds up operations. The operator simply inserts the cannula directly into the bag, eliminating manual handling and ensuring quick, clean, and safe loading.
3
INERTIZATION SYSTEM
A sparger system for the controlled injection of inert gases (nitrogen or argon) into the product stream. The microbubbles supersaturate the oil, promoting the removal of dissolved oxygen, reducing oxidation and preserving the oil's organoleptic characteristics.
Why choose
Exoos Practical
Production efficiency, ease of use and absence of filter paper:
Exoos Pratico filters the oil from the mill, prioritizing quality and identity, respecting the work that goes into each season.
BRIGHT OIL AND QUALITY
PRESERVED OVER TIME
With Exoos Pratico you get a brilliant filtration, even on freshly extracted oils, immediately eliminating impurities and slowing down the oxidative processes that degrade the aromas and flavor of your extra virgin olive oil over time.
LOSSES OF AROUND 0.3%
The spent panels are virtually dry. Losses are around 0.3%, over fifteen times less than with traditional cardboard filters. Furthermore, the high cost of filter cardboard and any starches/glues added to the cardboard itself are avoided.
QUICK CLEANING
In the middle of the countryside, time is precious. Final cleaning of the filter plates is quick and easy; they can be quickly dismantled. In just 5 minutes, the filter is clean enough to start the next cycle, without any drips and ensuring the entire surrounding area is completely hygienic.
OPERATOR PRESENCE
SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED
With Exoos, all valves are automated: the software manages the operations, making the process safer and reducing the need for operator presence during the filtration phase.
