Terpenes in CBD Wax
Terpenes are natural compounds in many plants, including cannabis, contributing to their distinct aromas. Common terpenes like myrcene, α-pinene, β-caryophyllene, humulene, linalool, and limonene are found in various strains. According to a study in Current Neuropharmacology, cannabinoids and terpenes work together in an ‘entourage effect,’ potentially enhancing CBD’s benefits for symptoms like pain, headaches, and inflammation.

Purity
CBD concentrates, like wax, are valued for their purity. Proper manufacturing leaves no residue or trace chemicals, ensuring you get only CBD and other beneficial compounds like terpenes.
Higher Doses
CBD wax often contains higher concentrations than other forms, allowing quicker and more potent dosing.
Quicker Onset
Many prefer concentrates for their rapid delivery method. Inhaling vaporized CBD wax offers quick absorption, making it ideal for those seeking immediate effects.
CBD wax combines purity, potency, and the unique benefits of terpenes, offering a versatile and effective way to consume CBD.
How CBD Wax is Made
CBD wax production involves sophisticated extraction methods to achieve high potency and purity. The most common techniques include:
Butane Hash Oil Extraction (BHO)
BHO uses butane to extract essential oils, including cannabinoids and terpenes, from the cannabis plant. Post-extraction, the butane is evaporated, leaving behind a concentrated substance. Despite its effectiveness, BHO has drawbacks, such as the risk of explosion and the potential for toxic butane residues in the product.
CO2 Extraction
Increasingly popular, CO2 extraction utilizes pressurized carbon dioxide to extract cannabinoids and terpenes. This method employs high pressure and heat to turn CO2 supercritical, acting as a gas and a liquid, known as “supercritical CO2 extraction.” It’s a cleaner method than BHO, as any residual CO2 evaporates, leaving no harmful solvents behind.
All the CBD Wax from The Goods is crafted using CO2 extraction, ensuring a clean, potent, and high-quality product. This method reflects a perfect harmony of creativity, science, and skill, producing a product far superior in potency.
