• Hydrosols: aromatic waters resulting from distillation and co-products of essential oils

The extraction process varies depending on the type of extract, but always aims to preserve the plant's active compounds to the maximum extent. At Landema, we prioritize gentle extraction methods that respect the environment to ensure the quality and efficacy of our extracts.
