What is Clean Extraction?
What is clean extraction?
Many companies these days are rightfully looking to extract the essence of botanical material in order to create the highest quality and purity possible. CO₂ supercritical technology is a safe and cost-effective answer to this issue that can be used across many different industries. From cannabis to beer production, supercritical CO₂ can create the best possible product while extracting the excess that is not needed.
It starts by pumping pressurized carbon dioxide into a chamber filled with plant matter. When the carbon dioxide is exposed to this pressure, it becomes “supercritical,” allowing it to take on qualities similar to a liquid while still technically retaining its gaseous state. These liquid properties allow the carbon dioxide to function as a solvent, pulling out the oils, resin, and other excess substances from the plant matter being processed.
Supercritical CO₂ extraction has become a simple, cost-effective way to yield pure, quality results. Get in touch with our team today to learn more about our extraction process and what we can do for you. We offer quality cannabis at the right price.
What is Solventless Extraction?
Solventless extraction uses methods to extract cannabis oils without the use of any type of solvent typically used in extraction processes. Typically, these processes use water or heat and pressure to remove the trichomes (resin) from the plant material. Extraction in this fashion captures virtually all the terpenes in the plant, enhancing the aroma and full spectrum nature of the finished product, all in a 100% natural, solvent-free process.

“Bubble Hash” or “Water Hash”, whatever you call it, both terms describe the same product- cannabis resin extracted from plant material using very cold water, ice cubes and agitation. Buds or trim are gently stirred by hand or spun using an electric mixer in ice-cold water, causing the trichomes to become hard and brittle and eventually snapping off of the plant. After a short period of mixing, the water is poured through a series of mesh filter bags- often called ‘bubble bags’- with the uppermost having the largest mesh and the lowermost the finest.
Like all extracts, the quality of water hash depends on the starting material used, with the lowest grade being dark brown pressed resin- a little better in appearance and purity than imported hashish. On the other hand, water hash expertly extracted from well-cultivated flowers will result in a fine, golden extract resembling light brown sugar, with total cannabinoids testing between 50-80 percent.
Our finished solventless products start with the best fresh-frozen plant material available to capture all the terpenes in the plant, providing the highest quality products available.
