TORONTO — GOC Nexus GmbH, a company involved in cannabis processing technology, and BTAB Solutions Inc., announce the signing of a Letter of Intent (LOI) outlining their collaboration in establishing processing hubs for microbiological decontamination of cannabis in Canada and abroad. This LOI signifies the commitment of both parties to work together in building a partnership.
GOC Nexus is trying to improve the processing of medicinal and recreational cannabis. Their approach to decontamination aims to address the global challenges of limited shelf life and microbiological contamination in cannabis products.
BTAB Solutions is a player in the international cannabis industry, known for trying to work on brands, technologies, and products that are loved by consumers and distributors.
Cold plasma sterilization of cannabis is a technique that may be able to transform the cannabis industry. Unlike traditional sterilization methods that rely on radiation, heat, or chemicals, cold plasma sterilization offers a safer and more effective alternative. This technology harnesses ionized gas to neutralize harmful microorganisms, such as spores, mold, yeasts, and bacteria, without compromising the integrity of the cannabis or its valuable constituents. By providing a reportedly efficient sterilization process, cold plasma technology ensures product safety while maintaining the desired quality and potency of cannabis.
The project will be executed in multiple stages, starting with the establishment of a small-scale recreational hub to demonstrate the business case. Subsequently, a parallel hub will be prepared, designed to obtain an EU-GMP license. Once the planned hub in Germany attains GMP certification and the Canadian level-2 hub meets GMP requirements, the parties intend to pursue EU-GMP certification. This milestone will enable product processing with the aim of exporting material to the German hub for entry into the European market.
GOC Nexus will be responsible for organizing the cold plasma machines required for the project, customizing them to meet the specific needs of the operation. The team will develop EU-GMP compliant processes to minimize human involvement and enhance process control. The company will also establish an EU-GMP compliant quality management system to ensure the highest standards of quality and compliance.
BTAB Solutions will play a vital role in the collaboration by providing the necessary financing for the construction and operational management of the processing hubs. They will also be responsible for the acquisition of business opportunities and the day-to-day operational management of the hubs. BTAB’s extensive experience in the Canadian cannabis industry and their strong international presence make them an ideal partner for this venture.
“We are thrilled to announce this exciting partnership between GOC Nexus and BTAB Solutions,” said David Surjo, CEO at GOC Nexus. “Our combined expertise and shared vision for the future of the cannabis industry will allow us to establish world-class processing hubs that adhere to the highest quality standards. Together, we aim to revolutionize the sterilization processes in the cannabis cultivation and processing stages, ultimately benefiting micro cultivators, processors, and industry standards.”
