Velvet Antler Processing
Our Process
Our process starts with the elk farmer. We only source raw velvet from our farm directly, or velvet antler from elk farms in the USA. We support our farmers by offering a fair price on the rapidly growing commodity, that is velvet. There is only one opportunity per year to harvest the velvet during the growth stage.
​
After harvest, we then utilize the freeze-drying method, to preserve the over 400 active minerals and nutrients found inside the whole velvet antler. The freeze-drying method is more costly and time consuming, but ensures a higher quality and more potent product as opposed to other methods companies use.
​
The dried velvet antler is then crushed, ground, and sifted into a fine powder. Particle size reduction is an important step of the process so that the product can be encapsulated.
​
The velvet antler powder is then encapsulated, packaged, and ready for distribution. This whole process is done under one roof, without outsourcing.
