Nextleaf Solutions acquires new technology for cannabis beverages

Extraction company Nextleaf Solutions Ltd. has recently acquired the intellectual property for a new water-soluble technology for cannabis beverages.

Nextleaf plans to seek patent protection for the nano delivery of cannabinoids, including the foundational processing methodology and two water-soluble formulations. The company has spent 10 years of research and development to create a delivery system that claims to increase bioavailability through nano-emulsification. The company said this method allows for rapid onset of THC, CBD and other cannabinoids.

“The intellectual property we’ve acquired allows consumers to feel the desired effect from cannabinoid infused drinks and edibles in under 10 minutes,” said chief executive Paul Pederson. “We are excited to commercialize this game changing technology by supplying water-soluble THC and CBD solutions through our private label program.”

Nextleaf Solutions is looking to develop “disruptive intellectual property” for the extraction, purification and formulation of cannabinoids. The company currently owns 12 issued patents pertaining to industrial-scale production of high-purity, cannabinoid-rich distillate.
