Extraction / Manufacturing

Extraction can be achieved in a few ways involving various techniques and cleaners used to remove the cannabinoids and terpenes from the original plant material. It is an important process for making cannabis-derived products because it concentrates the active ingredients into an oil that can be put into products, while removing plant material like chlorophyll and other plant material that taste awful.

As the cannabis industry transitions from a black market to a legal market, product development, and methods of extraction have become a focal point but have also opened the potential of non-compliant products being sold. At Geo-Greenhealth we extract only governmental as per guidelines and standards to produce A-Grade extracts.

GMP – Extraction

CBD/ THC Biomass crude oil extraction + COA certification (3rd Party accreditation)

  • (Cold extraction at -60°C) up to 1,000 kg/ month.

    WHY cold extraction?

  • It gives more than 400 cannabinoids, much higher than isolate and distillate. Extraction is a very complex procedure and should comply to medicinal qualities.


That’s why our sequence focusses on:

Solvent-based extraction process uses chemicals (Ethanol) to dissolve trichomes from the Biomass organic plant material. After the solvent gets removed, raw or ‘crude’ cannabis oil remains.

At -60°C mostly trichomes are captured in the EtOH (Ethanol) solution which is rich in cannabinoids (CBD/ THC) and desirable compounds. Most of the unwanted compounds like Flavonoids; Chlorophyl and Waxes (If your biomass was properly dried and cured, most of the sugars and chlorophyl should have fermented) that might have slipped through are now removed by sending the extracted solution back into the – 60°C freezer for another 24 hours (Winterization)

Starting with a 6-stage filtering system at -60°C all unwanted Flavonoids are now removed, leaving you with a 100% pure crude extract. This might be only between 60 and 90% solids, but contains a full spectrum of Cannabinoids, but still contains the solvent solution.

The solution now goes through a rotavapor to remove the solvent. Now your oil gets sent off for profile testing. (Potency, heavy metals and solvent) leaving you with a medicinal quality crude oil.

As we all know, the percentage of solids in CBD/THC does not matter. It’s about dosing the required mg/ human consumption.
