Extraction Process

The Benefits of CO2 Extraction

There are multiple ways to extract CBD from the hemp plant. First Crop™ uses CO2 extraction for the following benefits:

    • Does not use solvents
    • Closed-loop process does not release gases into the air
    • Non-flammable
    • Toxin-free
    • Considered GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) by the FDA
    • Little or no post-processing required
    • Non-corrosive

CO2 extraction uses highly pressurized carbon dioxide, a byproduct of breathing air. This compressed CO2 extracts important, usable parts of the hemp plant such as terpenes, some waxes and lipids and, of course, cannabinoids like CBD. Unlike chemical-extraction techniques which use highly flammable chemical solvents and strip hemp of many of its natural beneficial compounds, CO2 extraction preserves the valuable cannabinoids and terpenes and leaves behind no chemical residue, chlorophyll or non-functional materials.
