FlackTek™ Technology Preserves Terpenes in Cannabis Concentrates

LANDRUM, S.C., Aug. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- In a new study titled "Preserving Terpenes in Cannabis Concentrates During Solvent Purging: The Gentle Approach of FlackTek™," researchers at Cambium Analytica, a leader in analytical testing, product development and contract research and development for the food, dietary supplement and botanical industries, have demonstrated how FlackTek™'s advanced technology significantly conserves terpenes during solvent purging. Terpenes, known for their contribution to the aroma and therapeutic effects of cannabis, are often lost during traditional purging processes.

The study reveals that FlackTek™'s method minimizes terpene degradation and speeds up the purging process, a crucial advantage for cannabis product manufacturers aiming for high-quality outcomes. This method ensures that the valuable aromatic compounds are retained, enhancing the sensory attributes of cannabis products without the extended processing times associated with conventional methods.

"The preservation of terpenes is vital for maintaining the natural quality and appeal of cannabis products," stated Dr. Ed Szczygiel, director of product development for Cambium Analytica. "FlackTek™ offers an innovative solution that protects these delicate compounds, making it an indispensable technology for the industry."

"This research highlights the unique capability of FlackTek™'s advanced technology to minimize terpene degradation and accelerate the purging process, offering a significant advantage to cannabis product manufacturers," said Ted Reynolds, cannabis director at FlackTek. "FlackTek™ is proud to provide a solution that enhances the sensory qualities of cannabis products while ensuring efficiency and quality."
