Red Mesa Science & Refining is revolutionizing hemp-derived cannabinoid refining methods by utilizing a proprietary botanical refinement system as an alternative to synthetically produced cannabinoids. such as cannabinol (CBN), Cannabicitran (CBT) and Cannabicyclol (CBT). Unlike traditional methods that rely on chemical catalysts, Red Mesa uses industrial-scale liquid centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC), which isolates cannabinoids based on their solubility differences. This process preserves the natural complexity of the cannabinoids, while protecting against environmental contamination with its closed loop system. Additionally, the recovery and reuse of solvents aligns with Red Mesa’s quest for minimizing waste and promoting sustainability.

Red Mesa, a leading hemp processor, specializes in producing high-purity cannabinoid isolates and distillates, including CBD, CBG and rare cannabinoids such as CBN, CBL and CBT. Operating from a 50,000-square-foot facility in St. George, Utah, Red Mesa is committed to delivering exceptional quality and consistency. Red Mesa’s capabilities include customized homogenization, distillation, crystallization, chromatography and conversion equipment, all operating under the guidance of a rigorous Quality Management System (QMS). To ensure transparency and compliance, each product is fully tested by an ISO 17025 third-party lab who supplies a certificate of analysis (COA), verifying potency and the removal of federally mandated compounds.

Red Mesa serves the nutraceutical, health and wellness and vape industries, meeting growing demand for pure cannabinoid isolates and distillates. With hemp laws constantly evolving, Red Mesa’s advanced methods offer solutions to regulatory challenges, such as bans on converted cannabinoids in certain states, like Montana. . By staying ahead of regulatory changes, Red Mesa ensures compliance and continues to meet the needs of customers in the rapidly expanding hemp market

Processing over 6,000 kilograms of crude hemp feedstock each month, Red Mesa is positioned for significant growth, with plans to double this capacity by 2026. Red Mesa is positioned as a leader in the hemp industry, contributing to the $28 billion market for hemp-derived cannabinoid products in 2022.
