What Is Supercritical CO₂ Technology?

Supercritical carbon-dioxide extraction is a modern, solvent-free method that allows plant compounds to be obtained in their purest form. Under carefully controlled pressure and temperature, CO₂ enters a “supercritical” state – neither a gas nor a liquid. In this unique condition, carbon dioxide can gently dissolve and extract the plant’s most valuable components: essential oils, fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins.

Why Is This Process So Special?

Unlike conventional solvent or alcohol extractions, supercritical CO₂ leaves absolutely no residues. The process uses low temperatures, ensuring that heat-sensitive compounds – such as vitamins and essential oils – remain intact. The result is a concentrated, pure, and 100 % natural extract that faithfully preserves the plant’s biological activity.

Eco-Friendly and Sustainable

CO₂ is a natural, recyclable gas that completely evaporates at the end of the process, leaving no contamination in the product or the environment. The method is energy-efficient and yields the maximum possible amount of active compounds – making it one of the most sustainable technologies in the modern green industry.

A Guarantee of Quality and Potency

Supercritical extracts often contain several times more active compounds than traditional tinctures. The resulting oils and essences represent nature’s most active form – ideal for aromatherapy, skincare, dietary supplements, or as ingredients in natural herbal formulations.

In Summary

Supercritical CO₂ extraction unites nature and science in perfect harmony. It’s clean, efficient, and sustainable – exactly what today’s conscious consumers and the planet both need.
