Seattle CannaCon 2019 Recap

Sterlitech had the pleasure of attending our local CannaCon this month. CannaCon is the largest event in the cannabis industry, with hundreds of exhibitors from around the country. The conference has dates in Oklahoma City, Detroit, and Springfield, but Seattle is its flagship city. Industry experts in growing, processing, packaging, marketing, financing, IT, and business operations all meet at this event.

On the floor at the Seattle show, it was clear that this year’s conference was catering to an advanced cannabis market. There was a wide variety of products and services showcased, to match the diversity and maturity of Seattle’s market. A special area of emphasis for this year was cannabinoid and terpene profiling. We were excited to see all the solvent-based (and solvent-free) extraction technologies, along with distillation equipment.

Sterlitech’s products for cannabis extraction include solutions for winterization and small-volume processing. Our vacuum filtration kits offer maximum efficiency and convenient assembly: check out the new 6-place Manifold Kit for Botanical Extraction. For those looking at solvent-less extraction methods, we also carry Rosin Pressing Papers.

As a more recently introduced technology, Organic Solvent Nanofiltration membranes eliminate the need for winterization while de-waxing and removing color in extracts with a single step.  These membranes can also remove solvent from your extracts without using a rotovap. Contact us to build a system for you to pilot this technology!
