The journey of a CBD product from farm to product is a meticulous process that ensures quality, safety, and efficacy. At Good Neighbors Biotechnology in Thailand, we take pride in our comprehensive approach to producing premium CBD products. From sustainable hemp farming to advanced extraction techniques and rigorous quality control, every step is designed to deliver the highest quality CBD. Let’s explore the journey of our CBD products, highlighting our commitment to excellence and adherence to the highest standards, including FDA approval.
Step 1: Sustainable Hemp Farming
The journey begins at our farms, where we cultivate hemp using both indoor and outdoor growing methods. Good Neighbors Biotechnology is dedicated to sustainable and ethical farming practices, ensuring that our hemp is grown under optimal conditions.
Indoor Farming
Our indoor hemp farming facilities provide a controlled environment, allowing us to optimize growing conditions for maximum cannabinoid production. Using artificial lighting, climate control, and hydroponic systems, we ensure that our plants receive the precise nutrients and care needed for superior quality.
Outdoor Farming
Our outdoor farms leverage Thailand’s favorable climate and rich soil. Grown under natural sunlight and organic farming practices, our outdoor hemp benefits from the full spectrum of light and nutrient-rich soil. This method supports robust growth and a diverse cannabinoid profile.
GAP Certification
Good Neighbors Biotechnology’s farms are GAP (Good Agricultural Practice) certified, ensuring that our farming methods meet the highest standards of sustainability and safety. This certification guarantees that our hemp is free from harmful pesticides and contaminants, providing a clean and pure raw material for our CBD products.
Step 2: Harvesting and Preparation
Once the hemp plants reach maturity, they are carefully harvested to preserve their cannabinoid and terpene profiles. Harvesting is followed by drying and curing, processes that are crucial for maintaining the quality of the hemp. The dried hemp is then ground into a fine powder to maximize the efficiency of the extraction process.
Step 3: Advanced CBD Extraction
The next step in the journey takes place in our state-of-the-art CBD extraction lab, where we use the Cryo-Ethanol Extraction method. This technique is renowned for its efficiency and ability to produce high-purity CBD extracts.
Cryo-Ethanol Extraction
Cryo-Ethanol extraction involves soaking the ground hemp in ethanol chilled to sub-zero temperatures. This process preserves the cannabinoids and terpenes while minimizing the extraction of unwanted compounds such as chlorophyll and waxes. The result is a clean and potent extract.
Filtration and Solvent Recovery
After extraction, the mixture is filtered to remove plant material. The ethanol is then evaporated and recovered for reuse, making the process both efficient and environmentally friendly. This step ensures that the extract is free from impurities.
Decarboxylation and Distillation
The filtered extract undergoes decarboxylation, where heat is applied to convert acidic cannabinoids (such as CBDA and THCA) into their active forms (CBD and THC). Following this, the extract is distilled to further purify and concentrate the cannabinoids, resulting in a high-quality distillate.
Crystallization
For CBD isolate products, the distillate undergoes crystallization to isolate pure CBD. This involves cooling the distillate to form CBD crystals, which are then separated and dried. The final product is a highly pure CBD isolate, ready for use in various formulations.
Step 4: Formulation and Production
The purified CBD extract is then used to create our range of CBD products. At Good Neighbors Biotechnology, we offer a variety of FDA approved CBD products, including oils, tinctures, capsules, and topicals.
Product Formulation
Our formulation team combines the CBD extract with other high-quality ingredients to create effective and safe products. Each product is carefully formulated to ensure optimal bioavailability and efficacy.
Quality Control
Every batch of our CBD products undergoes rigorous testing in our GMP PIC/S and ISO 9001 certified lab. This includes testing for potency, purity, and contaminants. By adhering to these stringent quality control measures, we ensure that our products meet the highest standards of safety and effectiveness.
Step 5: Packaging and Distribution
The final step in the journey is packaging and distribution. Our products are packaged in high-quality, tamper-evident containers to maintain their integrity and freshness. Each product is labeled with detailed information, including dosage instructions and ingredient lists.
Distribution
Our CBD products are distributed through various channels, including online sales and retail partnerships. We ensure that our products are accessible to customers in Thailand and beyond, delivering the benefits of high-quality CBD to a wide audience.
