Consistent Dry-Cure-Store Process Now
Protected and Available in the EU to Licensed Operators and Home
Cultivators
Cannatrol, the creators of the only total dry, cure and store
system for the cannabis industry, announced today the approval of
two European patents for its Vaportrol® Technology, protecting the
proprietary technology throughout the European Union.
“As the European cannabis industry grows, demand for precision
drying, curing and storage technologies continues to expand,” said
David Sandelman, co-founder, COO and CTO of Cannatrol. “Cannatrol’s
proven environmental-control system ensures top-quality cannabis
through a repeatable, consistent process, and it’s appropriate for
any scale of cultivation, from large-scale greenhouse production to
home growers.”
Cannatrol’s patented postharvest technology is proven to
increase yields and curing efficiency, and delivers on average 16%
higher terpene retention when compared to traditional drying and
curing methods, according to independent testing by The Cannabis
Research Coalition. Throughout drying, curing and storage, the
environment will stay consistent and repeatable no matter the
season, climate or geographic location.
“We have already seen exponential growth in the U.S. as
commercial cultivators experience the benefits Cannatrol systems
offer for their bottom line, overall efficiency and, most
importantly, their product quality,” said Jane Sandelman, CEO and
Co-Founder of Cannatrol. “Cultivators in the European Union will
now be able to develop standard operating procedures that leave
nothing to chance, producing flower that is never over-dried and
has a longer shelf life.”
Rather than rely on guesswork, Cannatrol utilizes science, water
activity and vapor pressure, leading to elevated product quality,
increased yields, Good Manufacturing Processes (GMP) compliance and
bottom line improvement. These patents extend beyond cannabis as
Vaportrol® Technology has been proven and utilized in the U.S. and
European meat and cheese industries for years.
Cannatrol has held a U.S. patent since 2020 and began the
process of obtaining European patents in January of 2019. All
production will remain in the U.S., however, the patented
Vaportrol® Technology equipment will be shipped to eligible
countries in the European Union.
