From Concept to Production

Frequo provides specialized consulting for botanical extraction facilities at every stage of development and operation. Whether you're building a new facility, expanding production, or improving an existing operation, we help turn complex decisions into practical solutions — balancing performance, efficiency, scalability, and cost.

Facility Planning & Development

A successful extraction operation starts with the right foundation.

We help develop facilities around the realities of the extraction process, considering equipment requirements, workflow, utilities, production capacity, safety, future expansion, and day-to-day operation.

Equipment Selection & Integration

The most expensive equipment isn't necessarily the right equipment.

Frequo provides independent guidance to help clients evaluate extraction, processing, recovery, purification, and supporting equipment based on their actual production goals.

Our objective is to build a complete process-not simply assemble individual pieces of equipment.

Process Development

Great facilities are designed around great processes.

We evaluate the entire production path-from incoming botanical material through extraction, refinement, purification, and finished product-to develop processes that are repeatable, efficient, and appropriate for the desired product.

Operational Optimization

Existing facilities often have significantly more potential than their current production numbers suggest.

Frequo evaluates operations as a complete system to identify bottlenecks, unnecessary labor, equipment limitations, process inefficiencies, and opportunities to increase throughput.

We focus on improvements that can produce measurable operational results, including:

Throughput improvement

Startup & Commissioning Support

The transition from construction to production is where planning meets reality.

We provide hands-on support during facility startup to help ensure equipment, processes, and workflows function together as intended.

The goal is not simply to get the facility running-it's to get it running correctly.

Existing Facility Assessment

Sometimes the best investment isn't new equipment.

We assess existing extraction operations to determine where performance is being lost and where improvements will generate the greatest return.

Our assessments can examine equipment, process flow, production capacity, labor, recovery, facility layout, and operating procedures to develop a prioritized improvement strategy.

Independent Guidance. Practical Solutions.

Frequo approaches every project from the perspective of the entire operation.

We're not focused on selling a particular piece of equipment or forcing a predetermined solution. Recommendations are built around the client's product, production goals, facility, budget, and long-term strategy. The result is a clearer path from investment to production-and an operation designed to perform.

Let's Build It Right.

Whether you're developing a facility from the ground up or looking to get more from an existing operation, Frequo can help identify the right path forward.
