Full Bulk CBD Isolate Manufacturing Process
CBD isolate powder manufacturing is a specialized and technical process that fits within the overall hemp manufacturing process. The process involves:
- Growing quality hemp flower biomass that has less than 0.3% THC
- Harvesting & drying the flower so that it can be extracted
- Grinding of the hemp to 200-300 microns
- Decarboxylating the hemp to activate the cannabinoids
- Supercritical CO2 Extraction of the hemp to produce CBD hemp extract
- Dewaxing and winterization of the extract to make hemp oil
- Solvent removal from the winterized CBD oil extract
- Refining of the hemp into CBD distillate
- Production of bulk CBD isolate by making CBD crystals for formulation of products

Isolate Powder Process in Detail:
Looking at the process of CBD isolation in more detail after the manufacturing process are these steps as follows:
- The starting distillate material is heated in order to make the solid a liquid. The liquid can then be mixed, heated and dissolved into an organic solvent.
- Once the distillate dissolves the oil, a chiller is turned on and begins to cool the mixture while stirring.
- After waiting for about an hour, the solution will cool to temperatures below -20 degrees Celsius.
- Once the precipitation is completed, crystals are filtered from the solution and are washed in cold solvent.
- The crystals are removed from the filter and are dried under vacuum to remove the solvent.
