Hemp Industry Leader Is The Only CBD Company To Be Issued Both Certificate Of Free Sale and License To Operate As A Manufactured Food Establishment

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., March 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Folium Biosciences is proud to have been issued a Certificate of Free Sale and a Manufactured Food Establishment License by the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment (CDPHE). These licenses help establish Folium Biosciences as the industry's premier hemp company for manufacturing, processing and fulfilling of Folium Biosciences' phytocannabinoid-rich CBD oil, water-soluble technologies and finished food products. Being licensed to operate as a Manufactured Food Establishment gives Folium Biosciences the full capability to legally manufacture food products containing CBD. No other hemp company has met the requirements needed to be licensed as a Manufactured Food Facility and receive a Certificate of Free Sale.

The CDPHE conducted a thorough inspection of Folium Biosciences' manufacturing facility, certifying not only the State's legal authorization to engage in the free sale of its products, but certifies 0.0% THC as to the following products:

Folium Biosciences passed the CDPHE's inspection with a perfect score.  "Folium now meets all of the health, wellness and food safety criteria, in its zone, that not only national food distributors must meet, but we also strive to reach the standards of FDA-approved pharmaceutical manufacturers," said CEO Kashif Shan. 

Folium Biosciences now holds not only all of the State's current food and cosmetic licensing but has obtained through its subsidiaries and ancillary companies: GMP Certification, GPP Certification, Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) licensing, EU Pharmaceutical Manufacturing licensing, Kosher and Halal certification, and ISO Certified Clean Rooms for processing and R&D Development.  Folium Biosciences' new processing facility has also been FDA registered. 

"Being the only company to have both pivotal certifications in the hemp space is not only a significant step for us, but also for our industry. It means that we are headed in the right direction as the hemp space prepares for the industry's natural progression toward major household brands," said CEO Kashif Shan. "Folium's focus is to be as compliant-ready as possible,  taking proactive steps to ensure we do all we can to raise and set the industry standard. Major food and beverage brands are actively seeking trustworthy, regulated sources for phytocannabinoid-rich hemp oil (CBD) and we are primed to meet their needs in terms of regulation and commercial scale in order to provide full supply chain confidence from seed to sale," continued Shan. 

"With such crucial certifications in place, customers and partners alike can have the utmost trust in product safety, quality excellence and compliance," said Shan. "We place tremendous importance on our people, processes and pride ourselves in full transparency when it comes to matters of federal and state regulation."
