Solid extracts have been used in Western herbalism for hundreds of years, and now play a vital role in many flavor applications. The manufacture of these semi-solid masses has often been referred to as "50% science and 50% art." Truly, the ability to create a quality product requires a great deal of know-how and manufacturing capability.


PLT has created a joint-venture for the manufacture of our solid extracts. The solid extract experts at PLT, with over 80 years combined experience in the art, control every aspect of production ensuring the highest quality possible. Look to us for all your solid extract needs.
