Radient Technologies Inc. (TSX VENTURE:RTI) announces the signing of a Master Services Agreement to produce cannabis extracts for the Terra Life Sciences group, a private, Alberta-based pharmaceutical manufacturer whose ACMPR license is expected in the near future.
Under the terms of the Agreement, Radient will use its proprietary microwave-based extraction platform and decades of extraction expertise to deliver “Extraction as a Service” to Terra Life Sciences. From its Edmonton facility, Radient will process and refine Terra Life Sciences’ cultivated cannabis material into permitted cannabis oil products at industrial-scale throughput and high yields, while maintaining rigorous quality and product safety standards.
With its subsidiary Olds SoftGels Inc (“OSG”) and OSG’s production capacity of over 2.5 billion softgel capsules a year from two GMP-certified facilities, Terra Life Sciences is well-positioned to develop innovative, pharma-grade cannabis and CBD-based products at scale, enabled by the economic and operational advantages provided by Radient’s platform.
“We are excited to be a partner in Terra Life Sciences’ product development and value chain as they address the rapidly growing medical applications of cannabis and CBD-based products,” said Mike Cabigon, COO of Radient. “Furthermore, we anticipate a number of important synergies between the two companies as we address consumer needs.”
Dr. Anil Jain, President and CEO of Terra Life Sciences, added, “Through the use of MAP™, Radient has a proven, high value extraction system that will help bring to market a number of exciting products. It is important for us to solidify this relationship because it will provide us access to large scale extraction capacity for producing high quality pharma-grade medicine.”
