Here at Cornish Essential Oils, we are always "thinking outside the box" to develop greener agricultural systems using new technology & ethical methods. Our vision is to provide tomorrow's market today through a holistic model that combines the use of new technology and traditional methods. We are committed to sustainable development and the environment by protecting the surrounding ecosystems that we work in.The Smart Essential Oil Production System project is part of an integrated development plan designed by Cornish Essential Oils to reach this goal. The facility, situated in Cornwall, will utilize a combination of new technology and renewable energy sources to power an innovative and sustainable approach to essential oil production. _From Seed to Skin_.The grant funding for the project will be used to realise this goal while smoothly integrating it into a bigger ongoing innovative unique development that has been tailored to assist in the push for a restorative and regenerative landscape, whilst maintaining a net or negative carbon impact.The project utilizes smart technologies such as sensors, data analytics, and automation to optimize production processes, reducing waste and energy consumption while maximizing efficiency to meet the overall goal of reducing the carbon footprint of the end product. Not only will this help the UK meet the growing demand for sustainable and environmentally friendly natural products, it will also provide us with a competitive advantage in the marketplace.Traditional processes of producing essential oils are labour intensive and often resource-intensive which has a significant impact on the environment. For example, the distillation process requires significant amounts of water and consumes large amounts of energy that produce greenhouse gas emissions.Several components of this integrated system have already been put in place by Cornish Essential Oils including: The Introduction of Innovative Farming Practices using Robotic platforms; Installation of Renewable Energy Sources; Local Sourcing of both raw materials and innovative technology. However, this final component The Integrated Smart Essential Oil Production System is yet to be realised.The Integrated Smart Essential Oil Production System project is an exciting development. The project aims to transform the traditional, labor-intensive, and time-consuming essential oil production process into a more efficient, automated, and high-quality low carbon footprint process. The project has the potential to create new opportunities for a number of sectors while improving the health and wellbeing of consumers, at the same time promoting sustainability, social responsibility, and environmental stewardship.

在 Cornish Essential Oils，我们始终“跳出框框思考”，利用新技术和道德方法开发绿色农业系统。我们的愿景是通过结合新技术和传统方法的整体模型，为今天的明天的市场提供服务。我们致力于通过保护我们工作的周围生态系统来实现可持续发展和环境。智能精油生产系统项目是 Cornish Essential Oils 为实现这一目标而设计的综合开发计划的一部分。该工厂位于康沃尔郡，将结合新技术和可再生能源，为精油生产的创新和可持续方法提供动力。 _从种子到皮肤_。该项目的赠款资金将用于实现这一目标，同时将其顺利整合到一个更大的持续创新的独特开发中，该开发旨在帮助推动恢复和再生景观，同时保持净或负面碳影响。该项目利用传感器、数据分析和自动化等智能技术来优化生产流程，减少浪费和能源消耗，同时最大限度地提高效率，以实现减少最终产品碳足迹的总体目标。这不仅将帮助英国满足对可持续和环保天然产品不断增长的需求，还将为我们提供市场竞争优势。传统的精油生产工艺是劳动密集型的，而且往往是资源密集型的，因此具有显着的优势。对环境的影响。例如，蒸馏过程需要大量的水并消耗大量的能源，从而产生温室气体排放。康沃尔精油公司已经实施了该集成系统的几个组成部分，包括： 使用机器人平台引入创新农业实践;可再生能源的安装；原材料和创新技术的本地采购。然而，最后一个组件“集成智能精油生产系统”尚未实现。“集成智能精油生产系统”项目是一项令人兴奋的发展。该项目旨在将传统的、劳动密集型的、耗时的精油生产流程转变为更高效、自动化、高质量的低碳足迹流程。该项目有潜力为多个行业创造新的机遇，同时改善消费者的健康和福祉，同时促进可持续发展、社会责任和环境管理。
