The Alchemy of the Air

The objective of everything below is simple: preserve as much of the plant's native chemical complexity as reasonably possible. The fewer interventions between the field and the finished extract, the closer the bottle stays to what was actually harvested.

That is why we use carbon dioxide rather than hydrocarbon solvents, why the extraction loop runs cold rather than hot, and why we publish the analysis of each batch instead of a single number on the front of the label. The science comes first. The rest is consequence.

Supercritical CO₂

Carbon dioxide, held above its critical point, behaves as both a liquid and a gas. Under controlled pressure it passes through the plant material, carries the botanical compounds with it, and then leaves the extract completely as pressure is released — with no solvent residue to strip out afterwards.

Composition over concentration

Most of the industry competes on a single printed percentage. That number is easy to raise by adding purified crystalline isolate to a base oil, and doing so changes what the product is. We would rather publish the whole composition than optimise one figure on the label.

A single site in Vestervig

Seed accession, cultivation, extraction, formulation and analysis take place within one vertically integrated facility on the Danish North Sea coast. Controlling every step is slower and more expensive than subcontracting it. It is also the only way we can answer questions about a batch precisely.
