Common Questions

What operators ask us first

Do I need a C1D1 room for hydrocarbon extraction?

Yes. Hydrocarbon (butane and propane) extraction requires a Class I, Division 1 (C1D1) rated environment with hazardous exhaust, gas detection, and intrinsically safe equipment. It is the engineering standard that makes solvent extraction safe and keeps a facility compliant with fire and electrical codes.

What does a cannabis extraction consultant actually do?

We advise on the entire manufacturing side of an extraction facility: compliant lab design and MEP drawings, equipment selection and specifications, license applications, SOPs and manuals, and resolving deficiencies in engineering reports like PSI Technical and Facility Reports. We help new operators enter the market and existing facilities fix and optimize their operations.

Do you work outside of Colorado?

Yes. We advise clients nationwide and have completed design and build projects in over a dozen states, with hands-on experience in every state that permits hazardous solvent extraction. Requirements vary by state and by local Authority Having Jurisdiction, which is exactly where multi-state experience matters.

Can you help with a competitive license application?

Yes. We have contributed to winning competitive applications, including a Georgia processing application that took first place and earned the only perfect score in the state on the Laboratory Section, plus a second-place finish in Maryland among more than 100 applicants. In competitive states, the experience of the team named on the application is often the deciding factor.

We already built our lab but it isn't performing. Can you help?

Yes. This is common. We assess the current state of your facility and equipment, understand what you are trying to produce, and provide a clear write-up of what it will take to produce the products you need at the speed you need.
