Agrisana Srl produces bulk extracts from raw materials of plant origin using an extraction method based on the technology of carbon dioxide (CO2) in its supercritical state.
This innovative technology offers significant advantages over traditional extraction methods based on the use of chemical solvents and steam. The supercritical CO2 is in fact a non-toxic and inert solvent which has high lipid solubility at low temperatures: these characteristics allow to obtain, in an extremely selective way, plant extracts of oily nature not contaminated by chemical solvents without any thermal stress.
