Plant production, processing and equipment

Plant production: toll manufacturing

Your partner for the manufacture of your extracts.

EXTRACTIS PRODUCTION manufactures plant extracts as a subcontractor for the cosmetic, food supplement and food sectors.

This activity is based on an extraction and spray-drying workshop whose capacities are adjustable in order to meet needs ranging from one kilogram to several tons.

The production process, owned by the customer, can be the result of a partnership with EXTRACTIS INNOVATION or in direct response to a processing need. Extracts production services are subject to an analytical support and are framed by numerous certifications (ISO 9001,…).

Do not hesitate to contact our team for your needs in plant production.
