Extraction & expression

A concrete is the wax-rich first capture of aromatic biomass by solvent extraction. It retains fragrant molecules alongside natural waxes and pigments, creating a tactile, often plush material with unusual body.

Technology recorded for this material

  • Alcohol washing dissolves the aromatic fraction in ethanol, then uses chilling and filtration to separate waxes and heavier insolubles. This is a defining route from many concretes or resinoids to absolutes.

These process marks describe selective transformation. They can support a premium grade, but do not alone certify present condition, purity or universal superiority.
