Projects
Poligrow develops many different types of project throughout the world:
Oil crop plantations:
Poligrow develops oil crop plantations on land that is otherwise unsuitable and, therefore, underused for other food crops. The agricultural activities themselves are carried out by local workforces, which contributes to the creation of new jobs and social growth, while also respecting the local culture.

Treatment and oil production plants:
Poligrow establishes treatment plants for agricultural produce within the framework of achieving sustainability, both in terms of running the plantation and the development of social projects. Today, now that it is possible to extract oil from oil-bearing fruits and to treat waste incurred through oil extraction, the entire production cycle, from sowing to extraction, is sustainable and does not incur any environmental or social damage. Plants are managed with respect for the environment and all measures available for the prevention of regional contamination are adopted.
The company is also committed to guaranteeing a safe and healthy environment for its laboratories, ensuring the health and wellbeing of its workers by installing all safety features necessary in case of an emergency.
