When it comes to buying cannabis extraction equipment, Tyler Robson prefers to jump ahead in the process.

“Start with the end goal,” Robson, CEO of British Columbia-based Valens GroWorks, told Marijuana Business Magazine.

“Depending on the type of refined product you want, tailor an extraction process to get there, whether it’s CO2, ethyl alcohol (ethanol) or hydrocarbon,” he said.

Hundreds of thousands of dollars typically are at stake when buying extraction equipment, so cannabis companies such as Valens should take their time when making a purchase.

Four key areas come into play during the search for new extraction equipment, and Robson and other cannabis extraction specialists advised their peers to ask the following questions:

• Will the new machinery help or hinder future scaling?
• What is the manufacturer’s track record for customer support?
• What kinds of reviews has the equipment received?
• Is the manufacturer known for offering adequate training and maintenance?
