TORONTO, Nov. 07, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MediPharm Labs Corp. (TSXV: LABS) (the “Company” or “MediPharm Labs”) is pleased to announce that it has reached a significant milestone by completing the purification and production of 150,000 g of cannabis extract. Since concluding its Health Canada sales inspection on September 24, MediPharm Labs has commenced daily production and has achieved our first cannabis oil production target ahead of schedule using critical CO2 extraction and secondary purification processes. This is a Canadian leading volume.  

“MediPharm Labs is becoming a global leader in pharmaceutical-grade cannabis concentrates. With laser focus, we are executing on that goal, producing at high rates of efficiency, quality, and purity in our operations,” says Pat McCutcheon, President and CEO of MediPharm Labs. “Since legalization in Canada, the demand for purified cannabis oil is high and trending higher from both medical patients and adult consumers. We are ready to service this market and are building for the future when advanced derivative products will be formulated with concentrates and isolates.”

MediPharm Labs is a first-mover in Canadian cannabis oil production and runs three concurrent supercritical CO2 extraction lines within its wholly-owned laboratory and facilities built to cGMP and ISO standards. This phase one of its operations has remaining capacity to significantly increase these throughput volumes, to a total estimated 100,000 kg (100,000,000 g) of dried cannabis annually. MediPharm Labs is moving aggressively on its funded Phase two expansion having taken receipt of two additional supercritical CO2 extractors for use in January 2019. The complete MediPharm Labs phase two expansion is on track to complete by Q2 2019.

MediPharm Labs has partnered with its suppliers to modify equipment for proprietary results. It has been building a stellar team of operators from across complimenting industries such as pharmaceuticals, consumer packaged goods and nutraceuticals.  MediPharm Labs will continue to build on this foundation to remain global leaders in cannabis concentrate manufacturing and innovation.
