No matter where your focus is, we can help you maintain your edge. Here’s how we’re adding value to your process.

These spray dryers are your ticket to explosive business growth

Spray dryers turn cannabis oil into cannabis powder, and cannabis powder is going to be the most in-demand product in the industry 5 years from now. Start refining your process with our lab-scale spray dryers so you can make cannabis powder at a commercial scale sooner than your competitors. The business case is clear:

For growers:

  • Do more with your harvest by refining it into a product more manufacturers are going to want.
  • Sell directly to product manufacturers or retailers, keeping more of the profits for your business.
  • Make a name for yourself as a visionary and industry leader.

For retailers: 

  • Carry the products informed consumers know about early.
  • Stock products regular customers will make staples as soon as they know about them.
  • Establish your retail locations as places consumers can get cutting edge, high-quality products.
  • You already have the relationships in place - maybe it’s time to expand into product development and carry in-house artisanal CBD powder and THC powder varieties.

For product manufacturers:  

  • Make a product that works better with your edibles and cannabis beverages than the oils you use now.
  • Reduce the logistical costs of making your products - you need less storage space for CBD powder than you do for CBD oil. You can transport more active ingredient per pound in powder form than oil form too.
  • Lose less product to spoilage, since spray dried cannabis powder lasts an extra year on the shelves vs. oil.
  • Get an early start manufacturing a product everybody else is going to flock to in the next few years .

For distributors:

  • Invest in technology and expand into in-house product manufacturing to keep more profits for yourself.
  • Position your brand as a bold leader in the industry, willing to jump on opportunities and capture more business.
  • Add value to the wholesale products you sell and sell at an even higher margin.

The right tools can transform your businesses and help it grow

The cannabis plant does have inconsistent and sometimes unpredictable qualities. Depending on the strain, the taste, smell (terpenes), and THC or CBD, potency can vary greatly. These inconsistencies will make their way to the end product, which ultimately leads to unhappy customers.

You want to produce a consistent product. It just makes business sense. To do that, you have to isolate and separate the CBD and THC components, and then infuse them into your product. If you’re going to be using a spray dryer to create cannabis powders, you first need to make an oil that’s refined and clean. Through distillation, rotary evaporators are an indispensable tool for THC or CBD extraction.

We’re looking ahead to where the cannabis industry is going.
