What People Are Saying

  • “We’ve worked with a lot of CO2 technology vendors throughout our time in the medical cannabis industry. The professionalism, customer support, and dedication—on top of their technology—has made partnering with Vitalis a clear choice.”

    Jessie Kater, Senior VP of Innovation and R&D at Curaleaf

  • “Vitalis has been the star of our show in manufacturing. The extraction the machines provide has been ahead of the curve since 2019. We have had high-capacity, top-of-the-line extraction, and Vitalis is constantly making improvements, which puts them ahead of their competition. I do a lot of consulting work, and I’m exposed to a large variety of machines. Every time I find a machine that does something new and exciting, I discover that Vitalis was able to do that thing the whole time and they do it more efficiently. The only thing that’s been more enjoyable than these machines is the customer service. In our industry, we don’t get a lot of positive customer service, so excellent service really stands out and is greatly appreciated.”

    Leah Kincaid, CEO, Dynamic Processors

  • “Working with Vitalis for 7 years has made 3 things crystal clear: 1) Their systems are built for producing oils of the highest quality, which is paramount and exactly what we've achieved; 2) We have exceptional control over the extraction process, perfect for fine-tuning our formulations; and 3) The Vitalis service team are absolute rock stars, major players in our success.

    “By the time Redecan was sold for $CA925 million, we had a fleet of Vitalis Q-90 and R-200 systems. Now, some of us from that original team are taking what we learned and expanding to new geographies, not just in Canada, but the U.S. as well. With new Vitalis extraction systems and cool innovations like the CIS and Airo system, the team is geared up to produce some amazing oil for those markets, at a faster pace and lower cost of production than ever.”

    Jackie Fletcher, former Vice President of Extraction Science & Innovation, Tilray Brands

  • “Transforming the landscape of cannabis extraction, Christina Lake Cannabis stands at the forefront of innovation and quality in Canada. In the competitive world of cannabis extraction, our partnership with Vitalis has been a game-changer. Originally using the R-200 extraction system, we were running mono-solvent CO2, impressed with the machine's reliability and output. But since adding the Cosolvent Injection System (CIS) and other novel upgrades, we've seen massive improvements in our throughput and crude oil quality.

    “Where we used to extract about 90 kg of biomass per day, we're now pulling around 360 kg—a substantial increase of 300%. We can now process at least 100,000 kg of biomass each year, something that's critical to our scale-up plans. What used to be a labor-intensive winterization process is now streamlined and efficient, thanks to the Airo system.

    “Our collaboration with Vitalis underscores our unwavering commitment to innovation, ensuring we deliver top-tier extracts to the Canadian market at competitive prices.”

    Mark Aiken, CEO, Christina Lake Cannabis Corp.
