CALGARY, Alberta, Feb. 11, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FluroTech Ltd. (TSX-V: TEST) (OTCQB: FLURF), (“FluroTech” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the CompleTest™ was selected as the best of show for new cannabis technology by High! Canada Magazine at the recent Vancouver LIFT Expo.
“The award was unexpected,” commented Gary Jones, VP Business Development at FluroTech. “The Vancouver LIFT Expo was the first time FluroTech unveiled the CompleTest™ to the public. Master growers and quality assurance personnel were impressed by the live demonstrations, which reaffirmed the confidence the Company has in the technology. Feedback was positive with respect to the simplicity, speed, accuracy, and consistency of results of the product. Master growers recognized that they could affordably and accurately use the in-house testing device to select mother plants for breeding or to optimize their potency yield for a given strain.”
The Company believes that a fast, reliable, accurate and easy-to-use in-house testing device is required in the cannabis industry so that growers can focus on precision agriculture and optimize the potency yield of their crop, without waiting for outside quality assurance personnel or third-party lab results. Moreover, licensed producers will have data at their fingertips to ensure third-party labs are providing accurate and consistent results.
The Company has launched sales of CompleTestTM and is focusing its sales efforts in Western Canada.
