The CannaCraft Difference

There are certain rare benefits to being a cannabis company created and staffed by long-time industry growers and professionals. The most unique among them is our ability to manage every aspect of our production process. We have always embraced this as our commitment to transparency, sustainability, and ensuring the highest quality medicine for our patients.

From the tiny green seedling on our farms to the final lab-tested and quality-assured product on the shelf, our vertically integrated,

So what does it mean to be vertically integrated?

Vertical Integration:

noun

  1. the combination in one company of two or more stages of production normally operated by separate companies.

Simply put, we do it all: cultivation, extraction, lab-test, product development, and distribution.

Cultivation

This is where quality begins. Our veteran farmers' wealth of knowledge and commitment to sustainable cultivation practices allow us to ensure that the cannabis used in every CannaCraft product is of the highest quality standard.

We utilize sustainable growing techniques, never using pesticides or harsh chemicals. This ensures that the flower used in every single one of our products is free of contaminants. You can read about CannaCraft's never ending harvest here.

Extraction

Carbon dioxide (or CO2) is the cleanest and safest way to extract cannabis oil, which is why we use non-volatile CO2 extraction to achieve purity and maintain the natural terpenes of the cannabis strain. We have a team of dedicated engineers and technicians who not only hand-build our extraction machines on site, but also constantly test new techniques to be on the cutting edge of extraction. Check out this video of our extractors in action.

Lab-Tested Assurance

At CannaCraft, we believe transparency is key for our patients. Lab-tested is the industry standard--if you don't know what's in your cannabis, do you really want to be inhaling or ingesting it? In full transparency, all products are regularly lab-tested at every stage to ensure premium quality. We test for concentration, terpenes, microbial contaminations, residual solvents, and list those lab results for our brands AbsoluteXtracts, Care by Design, and Satori.

Finished Product

At the end of the day, our patients lead every effort that we undertake, and our finished products are proof of that. All of our products are consistent in the quantity of active ingredients by manufacturing in a pharmaceutical-grade clean room and all include complete and accurate labeling.

AbsoluteXtracts is the leader in strain-specific, high-THC cannabis oils in a variety of convenient and precisely dosed applications without any additives. We package our cannabis oil in specially made cartridges that are designed to ensure easy flow and a reliable draw.

Care By Design is made using whole-plant CBD-rich cannabis in medically appropriate formulations that offer a full spectrum of CBD:THC ratios and strains. This allows patients to comfortably optimize their cannabinoid therapy while moderating (or even eliminating) psychoactive effects for truly individualized patient treatment.

Satori Chocolates combines our pure sun-grown cannabis oil with award-winning, San Francisco-made, TCHO Chocolate to create this divine line. Satori specializes in user-friendly, precisely dosed, scored chocolate bars and bites in a variety of flavors.
