VANCOUVER, WA / ACCESSWIRE / December 17, 2020 /
ORCHID VENTURES, INC. (CSE:ORCD)(OTC PINK:ORVRF) (the "
Company" or "
Orchid"), a multi-state cannabis innovation company, announces that its wholly-owned subsidiary, PurTec Delivery Systems has launched a revolutionary technological advancement in 510-thread vape cartridges, the most popular form-factor in the vape market.
PurCore R1 has been another joint development project with their strategic partner, JWEI Group Advanced Technology Research Institute, built on the JWEI µKera NC technology platform. The Company believes this new technology will set new product safety standards throughout the cannabis vaporizer industry.
PurCore R1 has undergone a ceramic particle safety study where JWEI Group Advanced Technology Research Institute measured ceramic particles in cartridges from the company's leading competitors and compared it against the new PurCore R1 heating element. Ceramic particles are a rising issue where lower quality ceramic materials are being used, and when under pressure in manufacturing and assembly, the ceramic starts to break down. This also occurs during normal expansion and contraction when heating and cooling the ceramic surfaces. The PurTec Innovation Team in development with the JWEI group, has created a more porous and stable ceramic heating element that 1) reduces the risk of ceramic particle inhalation, 2) eliminates the use of potentially harmful adhesives and 3) dramatically lowers the amount of heavy metals used by over 80%.
