Our facility is designed and built using both FDA and GMP guidelines. We process the finest plant material using state-of-the-art CO2 extraction equipment in a dedicated clean room, complemented by an in-house analytical laboratory.
The process began with the recruitment of a world-class team of managers to conceptualize, build and launch a futuristic cultivation and processing facility. They purchased a 56,000 square foot facility in Timonium, Maryland in a commercial park just off the Baltimore beltway, which includes three acres of favorably zoned land that will allow for expansion to build an additional 100,000 square feet of production space. The original building was gutted to allow the CW team to maximize the space to meet their own stringent cannabis workflow requirements and to create a clean and efficient environment for product testing, growth, processing and packaging that rivals any pharmaceutical facility in the world. They hired Whiting Turner, an experienced industrial plant developer based in Baltimore, as general contractor to build the inaugural facility to pharmaceutical and food GMP manufacturing specs.
The infrastructure of the newly completed facility is second to none, including customized electrical and water irrigation systems outfitted to maximize production, consistency and quality of individual cultivars.
The plant includes loading docks and a warehouse room in a controlled environment to keep contaminants out from the outset; four research and development rooms; clone rooms; and individually temperature controlled hygienic cultivation chambers using the latest technology down to the anti-microbial walling and duct systems that allow for easy cleaning to maintain a sterile environment for plant production.
