Meet The Founder

Dustin Mahon

Founder of Better Vision LLC and a cannabis extraction subject matter expert with deep, multi-state compliance experience.

I'm the Founder of Better Vision LLC, where I and a handful of other industry experts provide cannabis extraction advisory services for clients utilizing hazardous solvent extraction, solventless extraction, and distillation.

Prior to founding Better Vision, I served as Director of Consulting Services and subject matter expert for ExtractionTek Stainless (ETS), the largest hazardous solvent equipment manufacturer in the United States. Before that, I owned and operated a Denver-based C1D1 extraction facility called EC Labs, under the brands Better Concentrates and Endocanna.

I specialize in complex compliance issues. Denver continues to enforce some of the most stringent regulations on extraction facilities in the country, and through my work with ETS, I've handled compliance matters in every state that permits hazardous solvent extraction.

Why operators work with us

  • Multi-state, hands-on experience. Completed design and build projects in over a dozen states, with equipment installation in every state that permits hazardous solvent extraction.
  • Competitive licensing track record. Contributed to the highest-scoring processing application in Georgia, where only 6 licenses were granted among 150+ applicants.
  • Engineering report authority. Responsible for the content of PSI Engineering Peer Reviews at ETS, and hundreds of client PSI deficiencies resolved since.
  • Certified compliance writing. PCQI-certified, with GMP and Food Safety Plan documentation capabilities.
  • Documentation depth. Authored the last major update to the ETS manual, adding 100+ pages and more than doubling its content.
