The Top Catalysts Driving a Potential $165.7 Billion CBD Opportunity

The CBD infused product market could balloon to $165.7 billion, according to Meticulous Research at a CAGR of 48.1%. That’s already creating sizable opportunity for companies such as Pure Extracts Technologies Corp. (CSE:PULL)(OTC:PRXTF)(XFRA:A2QJAJ), Canopy Growth Corporation (NASDAQ:CGC)(TSX:WEED), Tilray Inc. (NASDAQ:TLRY), Charlotte’s Web Holdings Inc. (TSX:CWEB)(OTC:CWBHF), and cbdMD Inc. (NYSE:YCBD).

“CBD-infused products are becoming increasingly popular. The therapeutic properties of CBD-infused products are being tested and confirmed by scientists and doctors around the world. CBD-infused products are non-intoxicating and used to treat several medical conditions, including epilepsy, psychosis, and anxiety disorders,” they note. “As researchers understand more about the potential benefits, more manufacturers are infusing their products with CBD.”

Helping, more states are legalizing the use of cannabis, including New York. Congress may push ahead with reform. In addition, 91% of Americans now say cannabis should be legal, according to Pew Research. In fact, Pew says, “As more states, including Virginia and New York, continue to legalize marijuana, an overwhelming share of U.S. adults (91%) say either that marijuana should be legal for medical and recreational use (60%) or that it should be legal for medical use only (31%). Fewer than one-in-ten (8%) say marijuana should not be legal for use by adults.”

Its Already Driving Big Interest in Companies Like Pure Extracts Technologies

Pure Extracts Technologies Corp.(CSE:PULL)(OTC:PRXTF)(XFRA:A2QJAJ) just announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Pure Extracts Manufacturing Corp., has signed a tolling agreement for the extraction of 80-85% pure CBD distillate from an initial 500 kgs. of hemp biomass. The biomass was sourced from one of Pure Extracts’ preferred suppliers and has a CBD potency of just over 10%. This biomass, with its specific particulate mill size, runs very efficiently on the Company’s Vitalis R200 sub/super-critical CO2 extraction system.

The high level of purity in the extracted CBD distillate makes it an ideal ingredient for vape cartridges, topicals, beverages and edible gummies and chocolates.

Pure Extracts CEO, Ben Nikolaevsky, remarked, “We are pleased to have entered into this tolling agreement and to have taken delivery of the first 500 kg of milled hemp biomass. We are very familiar with this particular biomass having used it before in the manufacturing of our in-house, branded products, so we know it extracts very well.”
