How is CBD Oil Made? Answers from a Top Producer

Not all CBD oil is created equal. The quality of CBD oil can vary greatly depending on the methods used in production and the controls placed on each step of the process. At NOVA Hemp, we follow advanced procedures and strict quality measures to ensure consistency, potency, and purity in every bottle.
Here’s what goes into the making of high-quality CBD oil—from plant to product.

CO2 extraction is one of the most efficient methods of extracting CBD. Known for its precision, this process uses carbon dioxide under high pressure and at low temperatures to isolate cannabinoids. CO2 extraction ensures a cleaner, full-spectrum product and preserves desirable compounds like terpenes and flavonoids.

Another widely used method is ethanol extraction. Ethanol, a food-grade alcohol, acts as a solvent to strip cannabinoids from the hemp plant. After extraction, the ethanol is removed, leaving behind a concentrated hemp oil that’s rich in cannabinoids.
At NOVA Hemp, we prioritize both purity and efficacy, which is why we rely on these cutting-edge extraction techniques to create the foundation for our products.

If the goal is to produce CBD isolate rather than full-spectrum or broad-spectrum CBD oil, the process includes an additional step where cannabinoids are separated. This yields a 99%+ pure CBD product, free of THC, terpenes, and other cannabinoids. CBD isolate is ideal for those seeking a THC-free option or a single-cannabinoid focus in their supplements.
However, for those who prefer the synergistic effects of multiple cannabinoids working together (also known as the entourage effect), full-spectrum CBD oil remains a popular choice. NOVA Hemp offers both types to meet the varying needs of our customers.

After distillation, the next step is blending. The concentrated CBD oil is mixed with a carrier oil to create the finished product. At NOVA Hemp, we use MCT oil derived from coconuts. Why? MCT oil is lightweight, flavorless, and enhances CBD absorption, making it the perfect partner for your daily dose.
This careful blending process not only ensures consistency in potency but also improves the overall usability of the oil.

Once the CBD oil is perfectly blended, it’s time for packaging. Each tincture bottle is filled with precision, measured at 0.945 fluid ounces per bottle. This slightly reduced volume takes into account the density difference between coconut oil and water, ensuring an accurate dosage every time.
At NOVA Hemp, we use automated bottling systems for accuracy and consistency while ensuring every bottle is sealed and labeled under strict quality controls.

Creating top-tier CBD products isn’t just about following the right steps; it’s about doing them with care, precision, and integrity. Here’s what makes NOVA Hemp’s CBD stand out from the rest:
