Fresure is pleased to announce the official opening of our new extraction facility in Nanning, Guangxi Province. This RMB 120 million investment represents the largest single capacity expansion in our company's history and positions Fresure to meet the rapidly growing global demand for premium plant essential oils.
Doubled Steam Distillation Capacity
The new facility adds 85 stainless steel steam distillation units ranging from 1,000 L to 8,000 L capacity, more than doubling our total distillation throughput. The new stills incorporate computer-controlled temperature and pressure regulation, enabling precise extraction parameters tailored to individual botanical materials. This level of process control ensures the batch-to-batch consistency our B2B customers require for quality-critical applications.
New CO2 Supercritical Extraction Line
For the first time, Fresure is now able to offer CO2 supercritical extracts alongside our traditional steam-distilled oils and solvent-extracted absolutes.
The new CO2 extraction line features:
- 3 × 200 L extraction vessels — processing up to 500 kg of botanical material per batch
- SCO2 select extracts at 80–120 bar — volatile compounds similar to steam-distilled oils
- TCO2 total extracts at 200–500 bar — complete phytochemical profile including waxes and resins
CO2 extracts represent the most chemically complete form of botanical extraction available today. Without the heat degradation inherent in steam distillation, CO2 extracts preserve heat-sensitive compounds and produce aroma profiles that more closely resemble the fresh botanical material.
Initial CO2 extract offerings: frankincense, sandalwood, chamomile, calendula, and ginger, with additional botanicals planned for 2026.
Expanded Quality Control Laboratory
The new facility includes a 400 m² quality control laboratory equipped with:
- Two additional GC-FID systems
- One GC-MS
- Chiral GC capability for enantiomeric analysis
This expansion enables comprehensive quality testing on every production batch without bottlenecks, reducing lead times for COA generation.
Sustainability Commitment
The Nanning facility has been designed to meet Green Building standards:
- Solar-assisted steam generation
- Closed-loop water recycling for condenser systems
- Biomass utilization of spent botanical material
These features reduce the facility's carbon footprint by an estimated 40% compared to conventional essential oil production facilities of equivalent capacity.
