HYTN Launches GMP Stability Program and Validates Vape Cartridges for International Markets
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HYTN Innovations Inc. (CSE: HYTN, FSE: 85W0, OTC PINK: HYTNF) ( "HYTN " or the "Company "), a leader in pharmaceutical-grade cannabis manufacturing, is pleased to announce the launch of its Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) Stability Program and the validation of its cannabis vape cartridges for international distribution. This initiative builds upon HYTN’s January 21, 2025, announcement of its strategic partnership with SNDL Inc. to develop GMP-compliant vape products.
The Stability Program is being conducted in collaboration with HYTN’s GMP-licensed laboratory partner. Upon successful completion, HYTN expects to provide an initial six-month stability statement for its GMP-compliant vape products—an essential regulatory requirement for pharmaceutical and medical cannabis markets in most jurisdictions, including Germany, the United Kingdom, and Australia. Ongoing non-accelerated stability studies aim to extend to 12 months. If successful, this will further validate long-term product stability for international markets.
In parallel with the launch of the Stability Program, HYTN has finalized the selection of a cartridge manufacturer and initiated comprehensive qualification and validation procedures, including equipment qualification and process validation, to ensure compliance with GMP standards for its ceramic coil 1g vaporizer cartridge. These efforts establish a foundation for global distribution while ensuring compliance with evolving regulations and market standards.
To support the expansion of its GMP product portfolio to include live resin and live rosin cannabis vape products, HYTN has submitted an amendment to its existing licensing framework with Health Canada to incorporate oil as an approved dosage form. This amendment, along with anticipated additional GMP approvals, reinforces the Company’s commitment to meeting the highest pharmaceutical and regulatory standards across global markets.
The Company believes that these initiatives further position HYTN to meet the needs of global cannabis markets requiring GMP-certified products under strict regulatory frameworks. Germany 's medical cannabis market has grown significantly, driven by increasing patient counts, expanding physician prescriptions, and broader pharmacy distribution.1 In Q3 2024, Germany imported 20,000 kilograms of cannabis—more than double the quarterly average before the April cannabis reform, highlighting the rising global demand for pharmaceutical-grade cannabis.1
