NATURAL SOLVENTS

Naturol 2003 Ltd
The Naturol Technique incorporates a technology for the economic extraction of high value compounds and oils from plants, which has been developed over the past twenty years.

The Naturol technique uses benign non-CFC gas solvents that have a number of advantages over more traditional solvents, hexane and liquid carbon dioxide. Naturol solvents are totally safe, being non flammable and inert. The Naturol Technique involves a simple yet efficient process that uses a low cost structure and readily available solvents to produce a superior yield and excellent quality free-flowing clear oils ready for sale.

The Naturol Technique allows the extraction of oil from almost any raw material, such as resins, seeds, petals or herbs. The plant design is modular, easy to expand and can handle any capacity of biomass. It is very rugged, simple and economic to operate and is therefore suitable for location in rural areas.

Naturol (2003) Limited (“Naturol”) is based in a research and development centre in Thirsk, North Yorkshire, and the facility is used to establish new products and processes and to support the growing number of natural medicine crop programmes under development in the UK. In addition, Naturol will design, install and commission new extraction plants around the world working with governments and international agencies to maximise benefits and profitabilities.
