Valcon Medical A/S Announces Receipt of EU GMP Certification and Start of Commercial Production for Pharmaceutical-Grade Cannabis Concentrates, Intermediary Products, and Medical Formulations
COPENHAGEN, June 22, 2021, /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

Valcon Medical A/S ("Valcon Medical" or the "Company"), Denmark's leading 
independent cannabis concentrate and medical formulation provider, received its 
licensing for the commercial production of cannabis from the Danish Medicines 
Agency (DKMA) earlier in May 2021.

Under the DKMA licensing, Valcon Medical is authorized to produce medical 
cannabis in accordance with section 9(1) of the Act on the Medicinal Cannabis 
Pilot Programme. Additionally, Valcon Medical has been issued authorisation to 
handle euphoriant substances and issued a European Union Good Manufacturing 
Practice (EU GMP) certification for the manufacturing of medical cannabis 
extracts in compliance with the German Monograph for cannabis extracts, DAB 
Eingestellter Cannabisextract. 

Valcon Medical is now offering to all parties, under commercial engagement, EU 
GMP contract manufacturing services and white label products for sale within 
Europe and for export to all legal international cannabis markets globally. "We 
are excited to service the market with a consistent supply of quality medical 
cannabis products," says Pete Patterson, CEO of Valcon Medical. "The Valcon 
Medical team has worked tirelessly over the past two years and this exclusive 
certification is a reflection of their professional approach and dedication."
The Company's state-of-the-art production facilities, located in greater 
Copenhagen, were built to the highest pharmaceutical standards, and were 
mission-designed to serve the most stringent pharmaceutical and medical 
cannabis partners. Valcon Medical will be providing broad-spectrum 
concentrates, and extracted medical cannabis isolates, as well as bespoke 
formulations and active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) to the global legal 
cannabis industry.

Valcon Medical's manufacturing process is based on the cutting-edge 
supercritical CO2 extraction and solvent recovery technologies provided by 
Vitalis Extraction Technology Inc. and BÜCHI Labortechnik AG, both leaders in 
cannabis production and processing services. 

Valcon Medical's COO, Peter Sigetty states "We are committed to maintaining the 
highest standards of medical cannabis manufacturing, to enable patients across 
Europe further access to treatments with medical cannabis." The Company's 
commitment to excellence has attracted a robust customer list which includes 
some of the largest and globally recognized names in pharmaceuticals and 
medical cannabis. 

Valcon Medical is backed by a group of renowned cannabis investors which 
include Artemis Growth Partners, Greenfield Global Opportunities Fund, and Nimb 
Capital Inc. The Company will continue to expand their service offering by 
first qualifying their analytical laboratory and then expanding the API product 
portfolio.
