Cannabis Extraction Market: An In-depth Analysis from 2018-2027

Douglas, Isle Of Man – Cannabis extraction and extract have gone through exponential growth in the past decade. After being criminalized for a long time, the world saw and moved towards legalizing cannabis in many countries. Cannabis extraction and distribution is relatively new as cannabis distilleries have only recently become notable in the global north. In developing countries, there is still much taboo around the use of cannabis. Cannabis has not entered the formal sector in these countries yet, but with all the media and regulations around cannabis springing up, this may soon change.

One of the significant areas where cannabis extracts are used is in the medical industry. The extract mainly contains cannabinoids like CBD and THC. Many medical practitioners use CBD to alleviate pain in medical conditions. The higher concentration of Cannabinoids in extracts means the youths are much more likely to vape less as the intensity is much more. Thus, the need for alternatives to fresh cannabis also drives the market demand. Cannabis extraction is a process of passing a solvent over fresh or cured cannabis material. The material is generally present in leaves, flowers or even stems.

The growing prevalence of THC vape pens and harmful solvents for cannabis extraction, like butane and hexane, is causing many companies to invest in research and development, which drives the market.
