Natural Products

The Natural Products unit (NP) has the purpose to face the increasing interest in active principles from natural products on a small and medium scale. Thanks to the innovative technology of Naviglio Estrattore® and our lyophilizers, we are able to offer several quality services, from cold extraction to lyophilization of a wide range of vegetable products/matrices.  
As a result of our expertise, we are able to shorten the activity time, to guarantee the high efficiency of the etraction process and a low-temperature extraction which are the basis to preserve the active principles contained especially in medicinal plants.
