Extraction is a process in the chemical, cosmetic, herbal, pharmaceutical and food sectors that can be carried out as follows:
- Extraction with water
- Extraction with solvents
- Steam distillation.
Steroglass has always manufactured scientific glass equipment for extractions in the pharmaceutical and chemical sectors. In particular, we specialize in the extraction of essential oils with borosilicate glass equipment for steam distillation process, defined as the official method. Essential oils can therefore be extracted from leaves, flowers, roots and berries whose nutraceutical and organoleptic properties are maintained unaltered thanks to low temperature extraction.
In the cosmetic, phytotherapeutic and in the food sectors, essential oils are increasingly being used.
