Green Leaf Farms, a US-based manufacturer of medical and recreational cannabis products, has received approval for expansion of its state-of-the-art facility and commencement of operations in an additional cultivation site.
Both sets of permits were tied together, the company said, due to the complexity of the structural and mechanical engineering that was needed to integrate the operations.
Based in Denver, Green Leaf Farms is a Division of Player’s Network (PNTV). The company took home the approved building permits for Phase Three development of its production and cultivation build-out, and officially began operations in an 8,000 ft2 cultivation room. The site was completed last November.
According to PNTV, the expanded building has been designed to develop new products that will differentiate Green Leaf Farms in the emerging legal marijuana industry.
Cleanroom Technology understands that the expansion includes a state-of-the-art cleanroom, genetics lab, development laboratory and an extraction facility. The project also considers a commercial kitchen, product development space, automated water purification including custom dosage and nutrient centre, a bio-testing facility, curing, packaging, and media centre.
"These design approvals will allow Green Leaf Farms to complete its build-out and become what I believe will be among the most advanced marijuana production and cultivation facilities in the world," Mark Bradley, CEO, commented.
He added: "We have combined technology with an amazing, creative workspace that will encourage innovation, product development, differentiation and operating efficiencies."
Green Leaf Farms has announced that further details of the expanded cultivation and manufacturing facility will be disclosed in due course.
