CPM|Crown is fired up to attend the 13th annual #MJBizCon in Las Vegas from December 3-6. This year’s theme is “Fuel Your Fire,” and we know there are going to be many other passionate and innovative companies in attendance who are excited to discuss how to advance this accelerating industry. Crown is a leader in the continuous process extraction and drying/desolventization systems in the hemp & cannabis industries. Last month, we were recognized as a “Top Ten Extraction Company” by Cannabis Business Insights magazine because of our ability to provide cost-effective and safe extraction technologies and processes. For example, our fully closed systems protect operators from direct exposure to solvents and extreme temperatures while also having near total solvent recovery capabilities and high pollution control. And, our support extends well past the design phase or equipment sales. Crown’s Lifecycle360 services are now available to partners at every step from innovation through complete aftermarket, ensuring that companies have a reliable global partner at every stage of the process. We look forward to sharing how our capabilities can help your company gain the edge on competitors and maximize profitability. We will be at Booth 5525.

Saturday Application Spotlight - A Treasure Trove from the Dumpster It’s Harvest time and the crop looks good. But did you know that we are leaving 50% of the plant matter on the ground, and that, in the case of corn the stover is truly a treasure trove of alternate and high value products? Once you have identified the value locked in your ‘waste’ let Crown help you extract these products, like the corn stover example. To date, Crown has helped customers prepare stover for cellulosic ethanol, high value cattle feeds, high fiber food additives…… Crown's Innovation Center is designed to do just that, validate the extractability and efficaciousness of extraction. As always, the team at CPM Crown (Alexander Danelich, Richard Ozer, Mat Koppang, Hy Rillero and Julio Barbeiro) is ready to assist. You can learn more about Crown’s Innovation Center managed by Austin Nelson and laboratory managed by Jacob Durst from the following YouTube video and from our landing page: https://lnkd.in/gxuXs228 https://lnkd.in/ghesSfbD #researchanddevelopment #research #alternativefuels #alternativefuel #saf #renewablebiodiesel #hvof #sustainableaviationfuel #naturalfiber #sustainability #sustainablefiber #sustainableaviationfuel #Extraction #reactionsynthesizedproducts #drying #naturalwaxes

Monday Money Beat - Incorporating economic profit (EP) - revenue minus not just operating and administrative costs, but also the cost of capital needed to produce that revenue is an important tool in today's business interest rate climate for decision making. "While many executives and investors were thrown by last year’s interest rate increases, the cost of capital needn’t be a threat. Companies that integrate the cost of capital into their strategy and planning reap real benefits. When something is cheap, people waste it. With the cost of capital back to normal levels, it’s simply irresponsible not to make it a management discipline that changes the way you do business. To do that, executives need to rediscover the concept of economic profit (EP) — that is, revenue minus not just operating and administrative costs, but also the cost of the capital needed to produce that revenue. The authors have found that executive teams that bring the disciplines of the capital market inside a corporation deliver shareholder returns more than 50% above their industry peer indexes. That staggering difference attests not just to the value created by managing with economic profit, but also to the value squandered by ignoring it." https://lnkd.in/gnzn_9WG

CPM|Crown is proud to have supplied the preparation and extraction equipment and complete processes for two brand new soybean processing plants: Platinum Crush LLC in Alta, Iowa and Norfolk Crush LLC in Norfolk, Nebraska. Each year, these plants will process a combined 77 million bushels of soybeans and produce 1.6 million tons of soybean meal, 900 million pounds of soybean oil and 154,000 tons of soybean hulls. CPM|Crown was chosen to be part of these projects because we provide the robust and efficient oilseed preparation and extraction equipment and processes needed to handle their massive volumes. Our ability to provide optimal solvent recovery will enable these plants to operate more economically and sustainably. These new plants will positively impact the agricultural communities in which they operate, help meet growing local and global demand for protein, and support the expanding renewable fuels industry. A big congratulations to Platinum Crush and Norfolk Crush on the completion of their soybean processing plants! Thank you for allowing us to be part of these projects!
