Vitalis Polaramax Pro 3D render

Polaramax™ Pro

Our clean-tech solution for small batches with professional-quality results. 

Integrated multi-solvent extraction technology allows you to use CO2 alone or CO2 plus a small amount of cosolvent.

NEW! Add a Vitalis Airo™ D-4 system for rapid, continuous, hands-free winterization. 

Get automated in-line dewaxing, decoloring, desolvation, and decarboxylation in one system with touchscreen operation.
