The Naviglio Extractor represents an innovative solid-liquid extraction technology that can advantageously replace conventional extraction techniques such as maceration and percolation.

For this reason, it can be primarily used for the production of galenic extracts listed in the Official Pharmacopoeia (F.U.), which requires the extraction of various parts of medicinal plants (leaves, roots, bark, etc.) using hydroalcoholic solutions of various concentrations and applying infusion (or maceration) or percolation as solid-liquid extraction techniques.
