As the adult-use cannabis market grows, product categories have also grown, with customers seeing new offerings on the shelves. One of the most popular of these categories has become cannabis extracts and concentrates made from potent flower. As a result of this growth, the global cannabis concentrate market is expected to reach around USD 18.5 Billion by 2030.
As cultivators keep up with demand, they seek ways to bring those popular products to their consumers. One of the challenges that come along with that is finding equipment that can maintain the commercial scale while keeping the products potent. As cannabis is refined into concentrates, there is little room for error.
Concentrates are made by pulling the terpenes and cannabinoids out of the trichomes to isolate the most potent parts of the plant. There are a few different ways to achieve concentrates, either by using solvents like CO2 or using a solventless method with just heat and pressure. Though both methods produce similar results, many cultivators and consumers prefer the solventless process, as it results in a cleaner, more pure end product. As an all-natural concentrate, solventless rosin is one of the most popular forms of concentrate.
Created with only heat and pressure, solventless rosin is a fairly simple process to follow, though it requires high-quality equipment to achieve the desired results. A commercial solventless rosin press like the TRP Stack from Triminator is one of the best rosin presses on the market. With three heat platens and a powerful 25-ton hydraulic cylinder, the press can produce the highest quality rosin at the lowest temperatures. This allows for maximum yields with virtually no trichome or terpene loss. With no heat degradation to the product, consumers are getting pure concentrates.
Solventless rosin is a versatile product; it can be vaporized and used in cartridges or as dabs, added to joints or packed in a bowl, infused in topical creams, or used in edibles. With numerous ways to utilize rosin, it is a highly profitable product for cultivators. Because producing solventless rosin is straightforward, cultivators can reproduce the same process every time, getting consistent yields and results. In turn, consumers can rely on your brand for consistent, high-quality products; building brand loyalty.
The Triminator TRP Stack offers more pressing space, so cultivators will yield more product, and therefore more revenue from the same labor and harvest. The patented multi-platen system provides twice the pressing surface area with consistently high pressure but ultra-low temperatures. The TRP Stack also comes with different pump options to accommodate specific facilities and workflows. In addition to being solventless, all touchpoints are food safe as well, making the machine easy to clean, and meets all Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) requirements.
To maintain a pure, potent product, it is important to allow the rosin to cool after processing. The patented Easy Pivot™ drip tech system in the TRP Stack enables the rosin to immediately fall onto a cold surface below the machine for terpene preservation. Ensuring directional flow, cultivators have faster collection times with better yields. The Triminator Rosin Press also allows for repeatability during the process. The TRP Stack features individual platen controls, enabling total control of the temperature range. Even just a few degrees can change the outcome of the product, so individual platen controls allow the perfect process for each strain.
As the popularity of concentrates continues to grow, a commercial rosin press is necessary to keep up with the market’s demand. A high-quality rosin press will ensure high quality in the final products. While it can be a challenge to find the right equipment for a cannabis processing facility, a machine like the TRP Stack is a reliable, industry-trusted rosin press.
