Willow Industries and Abstrax Partner Together to Create New Cannabis Terpene Infusion System

Willow Industries and Abstrax announce new cannabis terpene infusion system called HALO.

In a recent press release (1), Willow Industries, a company involved in cannabis decontamination technology and control services, announced that through a partnership with Abstrax, a company involved in cannabis and terpene research, together created HALO. This device is “a closed-loop system that revolutionizes the way cannabis flower is infused with terpenes. The machine employs a precise and controlled infusion process that aerosolizes liquid terpenes to optimize distribution, minimize waste, and maximize efficiency,” (1). HALO provides a variety of beneficial offerings such as, advanced tracking software, an enclosed drum loading system, customizable settings, and minimal labor requirements.

Some of the key features and benefits of HALO, as mentioned in the press release are (1):

  • Efficiency: Optimizes the infusion process, reducing time and labor compared to manual application methods.
  • Consistency: Delivers uniform terpene coverage, ensuring each batch meets high-quality standards.
  • Controlled Environment: Reduces risks of cross-contamination through a clean, enclosed application system.

HALO’s device dimensions are 52" W x 48" L x 63" H.Power specifications are 110 VAC 50/60 Hz 15A and in regard to processing time, HALO is able to perform within 30 minutes, an infusion and a cleaning cycle (1).

“Our goal at Willow Industries has always been to raise the bar for quality and safety in the cannabis industry,” Jill Ellsworth, Founder and CEO of Willow Industries, explained (1). “We're incredibly excited to partner with Abstrax to bring HALO to the market. By combining cutting-edge science with innovative engineering, HALO brings a revolutionary terpene infusion system that delivers precision, consistency, and safety. Together, we're setting a new standard for cannabis quality and innovation.”

“Through this collaboration, Abstrax and Willow are innovating to set a new standard,” Kevin Koby, CEO of Abstrax, said (1). “HALO represents a major step forward in how we approach terpene infusion. By harnessing Abstrax's expertise and the precision of the HALO system, operators can now create products with unmatched consistency and safety, all while elevating the cannabis experience. We're thrilled to be at the forefront of this industry.”

Manipulating Cannabis Genetics: Pulling Levers to Increase  Phytochemical Composition
Cannabis genetics fundamentally dictate the plant's potential for chemical signatures, including cannabinoid and terpene profiles, and physical traits, such as yield. Cultivators use selective techniques, such as "stacking," to enhance specific compounds. Ultimately, successful cultivation involves balancing superior genetics with environmental "levers" to optimize gene expression and create targeted strains.
