Cannatrol, the developer of revolutionary post-harvest cannabis technology, receives two European patent approvals

The drying, aging, and storage process is now protected and available in the EU to licensed operators and home growers

NORTH SPRINGFIELD, Vermont–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Cannatrol, the creator of the only comprehensive drying, curing, and storage system for the cannabis industry, announced today that it has been granted two European patents for its Vaportrol® technology, thereby protecting this proprietary technology throughout the European Union.

«As the European cannabis industry grows, the demand for precision drying, curing, and storage technologies continues to rise,» says David Sandelman, co-founder, COO, and CTO of Cannatrol. « Throughout the drying, curing, and storage processes, the environment will remain constant and reproducible, regardless of the season, climate, or geographic location.”.

«We’ve already seen exponential growth in the United States, as commercial growers reap the benefits that Cannatrol systems offer in terms of their financial performance, overall efficiency, and, above all, the quality of their products,» says Jane Sandelman, CEO and co-founder of Cannatrol. «Growers in the European Union will now be able to develop standardized operating procedures that leave nothing to chance, thereby producing flowers that are never over-dried and have a longer shelf life.»

Rather than relying on guesswork, Cannatrol uses science, the’water activity and vapor pressure, which leads to high product quality, increased yields, compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), and improved results. These patents extend beyond cannabis, as Vaportrol® technology has already proven itself and has been used in the meat and cheese industries in the United States and Europe for years.

Cannatrol has held a U.S. patent since 2020 and began the process of obtaining European patents in January 2019. Although all production will remain in the United States, the patented Vaportrol® equipment will be shipped to eligible countries in the European Union.
