Steam Distillation
At our facility, we use a 3-stage process to extract the essential oils present in spices, herbs, seeds, leaves, and roots. The process includes:
- Cleaning and Flaking: We clean and flake the spices and herbs before distillation.
- Steam Distillation: The flaked materials are charged in the distillation kettles where steam is released and flows along with the essential oil through the condenser to cool down. Our production team closely monitors the temperature to ensure maximum yield.
- Post-Production: Drying of De-Oiled Material: Once the distillation process is complete, the flaked material is dried and then transferred to the solvent extractors for the next stage of production. Our meticulous extraction process guarantees high-quality, pure, and potent essential oils for a wide range of applications.
Solvent Extraction
Maximize the value of your materials with our advanced solvent extraction techniques. Our team uses a variety of solvents, including Acetone, Hexane, Methanol, Ethanol, and Ethyl Acetate, to extract the active compounds from your materials based on their relative solubilities.
- Our process includes percolating the solvents with the material until the desired ingredients are extracted.
- After extraction, we remove any excess solvents through an evaporation process and blend the extract to meet the customer’s quality specifications.
- In addition, we offer specialized deodorization and decolorization services to meet the specific requirements of our customers. Trust us to provide high-quality and pure extracts for your business needs.
