At Greenext, we use advanced technologies to produce plant extracts used in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries in the purest and most effective way possible. To ensure maximum preservation of natural active ingredients, we apply the most advanced production techniques, including liposome encapsulation, lyophilization, spray drying, centrifugation, and supercritical CO₂ extraction.
It protects plant-based components with maximum effectiveness. Liposomes are double-layered microscopic structures that encapsulate plant-based components, enhancing the stability of active ingredients in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries.
Lyophilization is a process that dries products by freezing them. In this method, the product is first completely frozen, then placed under vacuum, where the ice crystals inside are removed by directly turning into vapor (sublimating). This allows the product to retain its molecular and physical structure despite losing its water content.
Preferred especially for heat-sensitive and valuable products, this method is carried out using special devices called lyophilizers or freeze dryers. It is widely used in fields such as food, medicine, and biotechnology.
Spray drying is a method that converts liquid substances into powder form. In this process, the liquid is sprayed (atomized) into a special drying chamber, where it is dried and the moisture is removed. As a result, a powder product consisting of spherical particles of uniform size is obtained.
It offers advantages, especially for heat-sensitive products, as it takes much less time than other drying methods. It is widely used in the food industry because foods are generally heat-sensitive and consumers show great interest in powdered products.
Centrifugation is a method that separates substances based on their density, shape, and size. In this process, centrifugal force is generated by a rotating motion, separating the particles within the sample.
It is used to separate suspensions with different densities. It was a widely preferred technique for separating liquid-liquid, liquid-solid, or liquid-liquid-solid mixtures.
Supercritical fluid extraction is a method that separates the desired substance from a mixture using a special solvent. Supercritical fluids are highly effective solvents because they possess both liquid and gas properties.
The most commonly used solvent in this process is carbon dioxide (CO₂). This is because it has a low critical temperature and pressure, is non-flammable and non-toxic, and does not harm the environment. Once the extraction process is complete, the pressure is reduced, allowing the solvent to be easily separated from the substance it contains.
