Barcelona Import offers ArteOliva olive oil in 0.5- and 1-L Tetra Prisma aseptic cartons, which offer a unique, grippable shape and a resealable screw cap, custom-designed for ArteOliva with an anti-dripping mechanism. While most olive oils offer a one-year shelf life, the ArteOliva brand maintains its freshness for up to three years.

The eye-catching carton stock, with rich imagery against a metallized background (for the olive oil) is supplied preprinted by Tetra Pak as rollstock, and cartons are formed and filled by ArteOliva in Spain. In the U.S., the products can be found in specialty food shops as well as in some regional grocers. Lucaya says that acceptance of the products has been slow but is gradually building. "It seems that in the U.S., people are not used to buying things in aseptic cartons. I think this is because they are not as aware as Europeans are of the effects of light, but business is picking up," he says.
