Where Every Product Begins

Before there is an oil, a gummy, or a capsule on a shelf, there is extract. It is the foundation everything else is built on: the concentrated result of pulling cannabinoids and terpenes out of raw hemp plant material, ready to be formulated into whatever comes next.

How CBD Extract Is Made

Extraction typically uses one of two established methods. CO2 extraction uses pressurised carbon dioxide to draw compounds out cleanly and precisely, and is widely used as an industry standard. Ethanol extraction uses food grade ethanol as a solvent, efficient at scale and thorough in what it pulls from the plant. Both methods are established, and the choice often comes down to the scale and precision a producer is aiming for.

Full Spectrum, Broad Spectrum, or Isolate CBD Extract

  • Full spectrum extract retains the broad natural range of cannabinoids and terpenes, within the UK legal THC limit
  • Broad spectrum extract offers a similar profile with THC removed entirely
  • Isolate is refined further into pure CBD, with no other plant compounds remaining

Why CBD Extract Quality Matters

Because extract is the base ingredient for almost every other product on this site, its quality sets the ceiling for everything built from it. A well made extract, properly tested, is what allows an oil, a capsule, or a gummy to be consistent from batch to batch.

Tested at Every Stage

We test our extracts, and the products made from them, at every stage of the process, with Certificates of Analysis available confirming cannabinoid content and compliance with UK legal limits.

Straight From the Flower

Extract is quite literally what you get when hemp flower is processed and concentrated, making this the most direct link between the raw plant and the products on this site. Browse our CBD Flower UK range to see the material this all comes from.
