THC BioMed Intl Ltd. (CSE: THC) (OTCMKTS:THCBF) is touting itself as the first Canadian licensed producer to automate the pre-rolling of cigarettes containing 100% cannabis.

In the same way that automation changed the tobacco industry, THC BioMed believes that the automation of pure cannabis cigarettes will bring meaningful changes to the current cannabis industry and its bottom line.

The company has installed the automated cigarette manufacturing plant at its location in Kelowna, B.C. to begin the production and sales of commercial-grade pure cannabis cigarettes. The automated cigarette manufacturing plant is capable of producing up to 5,000 cigarettes per minute.

The pure cannabis cigarettes will be packaged in lots of 3 and 20. Each cigarette will be intended for single-use and will come with a commercial-grade cigarette filter. There will be no tobacco in pure cannabis cigarettes, according to the company.

John Miller, the CEO of THC BioMed, says that they are offering “Canadians a better way of smoking cannabis, as we monitored an increase in demand for our best-selling pre-rolls, we acknowledged that it was our duty to ensure we distribute the best products possible.”

“We are the first cannabis producer to put filters between the cannabis we are selling, and our consumers. Filters were invented to protect the consumer and not degrade the experience. “We promise our Pure Cannabis Cigarettes will offer the same potency as our regular best-selling pre-rolls. I am predicting consumers will gravitate towards this finished type of product and the old way of rolling joints will be something of the past,” Miller states.
