Rosy Mondin, CEO of Quadron states: “It’s important to note that we’re in the infancy of the extracts market – while others have been focused on cultivation, we have been developing our turnkey extraction solutions. That solution includes more than just the sale of equipment (such as the CO2 BOSS or ethanol BEAST) – it includes biomass preparation, extraction, filtration, distillation, formulation, and the provision of ancillary products (such as vape pens). With the legalization of oils, edible products and topicals happening in Canada no later than October 17, 2019, licensed producers and new applicants are now focussing their attention to extraction processes. Efficient extraction equipment, techniques, procedures and formulation are key to developing new cannabis products.”
