What Eden Labs does

Eden Labs is a privately held Seattle-based manufacturer founded in 1994 by Fritz Chess that designs, engineers, and sells botanical extraction equipment built around two core technology platforms: supercritical CO2 extraction and ethanol-based Coldfinger extraction. The CO2 product line spans the Hi-Flo entry-level series (5L and 20L vessels, 2,000 to 5,000 Psi), the higher-performance Hi-Flo FX2 series (20L and 2x20L, processing over 107 lbs of biomass daily with advanced recipe automation), and large-scale custom Industrial CO2 systems (up to 3 x 2,000 Liter, 5,000 Psi, capable of 8+ tons per day). The ethanol line includes the Coldfinger BenchTop for R&D and small-scale production, Commercial/Industrial systems in 25, 100, and 500-gallon capacities with throughput of 65-80 lbs per hour and up to 100 gallons per hour solvent recovery, and the Goldilocks (Coldfinger X) small-batch unit for solo practitioners.

The company monetizes primarily through one-time capital equipment sales using a three-payment installment structure (60% on order, 20% within 30 days, 20% on manufacturing completion), with a three-year warranty and two days of included training. Secondary revenue streams include Lab Services (toll processing, proof of concept, R&D consulting), paid on-site installation and training, Self-Sufficiency spare parts kits, and Turnkey Manufacturing Solutions integrating certified partner equipment (shredders, freezers, filtration, rotovaps, distillation, vacuum ovens, centrifuges). Go-to-market is consultative direct enterprise field sales with custom system design collaboration between sales, engineering, and R&D; small equipment is also sold via an e-commerce store. All systems are designed to US FDA Good Manufacturing Practice standards.

Customer segments are dominated by cannabis and hemp operators, with secondary positions in nutraceuticals, food and beverage, cosmetics and personal care, pharmaceutical applications, and R&D institutions. The company reports over 30 years of operating history, a US-only primary operating geography with export capability, and 11-50 employees.
