Sixth Wave Innovations Inc. Takes Next Step in Affinity(TM) Product Launch

Published

on

Halifax, Nova Scotia–(Newsfile Corp. – June 2, 2021) – Sixth Wave Innovations Inc. (CSE: SIXW) (OTCQB: ATURF) (FSE: AHUH) (“Sixth Wave“, “SIXW” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce that it has released the Design for Manufacturing (“DFM”) specifications to Advanced Extraction Systems Inc. located in Charlottetown Prince Edward Island for final engineering design and manufacturing of its Affinity™ product line for cannabis purification.

The release of the DFM is a major milestone and the design incorporates the lessons learned to date using two pilot systems with the intention of increasing the flexibility and reliability of the system and giving SIXW the first Good Manufacturing Process (GMP) qualified system for production and delivery. SIXW expects to receive the final design/build quotation along with a production timeline in the coming weeks as it continues its preparation for full-scale commercialization.

Sixth Wave plans to deliver the first commercial Affinity™ System (the “System”) to Oregon-based Green Envy Extracts (the “Customer”) in Q4 this year assuming no unforeseen manufacturing/long lead item issues. The Customer purchase agreement requires that SIXW operate the system for a period of 60 to 90 days, producing a high purity full-spectrum cannabinoid distillate. Thereafter, SIXW will complete the already executed purchase order for the sale and installation of two additional GMP qualified units at the Customer’s sites. The Company expects that there will be quality/operational improvements that will be required as the first systems become operational on a commercial production basis. Once the first Affinity™ System has been thoroughly tested SIXW will begin to secure additional orders for delivery from customers in the pipeline. It is anticipated the Company will be able to deliver 3 or more Systems per quarter, depending on production capacity, during the remainder of 2022 with the ability to continue or expand delivery in 2022/2023. SIXW has arranged sufficient production capacity with AESI to meet or exceed our expansion schedule.

“We are very excited to start building our first production units and truly entering the cannabis industry. Taking the extra time to ensure that our Affinity™ System was thoroughly tested for deployment was a difficult but right decision. Barring unforeseen issues, we remain on a steady pace to satisfying our immediate customers’ needs and those of this growing industry,” stated Dr. Jonathan Gluckman, President and CEO of Sixth Wave. He went on to remark, “Developments in the legalization of cannabis in the United States are indicative of a growing market. Roll out of our Affinity™ Systems will correspond nicely with the timing and implementation of licensed producers in these new markets.”

Overall, the Company believes that financial markets and consumer demand for cannabis-related products are bullish. The Company expects to see continued State-by-State legalization, which will promote the build-out of facilities resulting in the continued expansion of markets for the Affinity™ System.
