    • The Stazione Sperimentale per le Industrie delle Essenze e dei Derivati dagli Agrumi (SSEA) (Experimental Station for the Industry of the Essential oils and Citrus products) is a special Agency of the Chamber of Commerce in Reggio Calabria.


    Overview


    It is an Institute for applied research, established in Reggio Calabria in 1918, and operating on a national scale with the specific aim of promoting the technical and technological progress in the essential oils and citrus by-products industry. In 1999 SSEA was transformed into a public economic institution with important legal, operational and administrative modifications which, however, have left its mission and functions unchanged.
    The Station was the Quality Control Body for the essential oil Bergamotto di Reggio Calabria DOP.
    On 30 July 2013, attended by the Prefect of Reggio Calabria, was signed a collaboration agreement between the special Agency SSEA and the Mediterranea University of Reggio Calabria. The agreement provides for an investment of 5 million euros in equipment, and the redevelopment of the experimental field as a field catalog.
