SAN FRANCISCO – Nalu Bio, Inc. today announced that it has signed a scale-up agreement with a global leader in specialty chemicals in order to deliver commercial quantities of its ultra-pure, consistent and cost-competitive synthetic cannabinoid (CBD) to an escalating CBD market. The momentum behind CBD’s rapid market growth is propelled by expanding consumer recognition of the health benefits of CBD and the science that continues to demonstrate CBD’s promise in a growing list of therapeutic areas, including the management of stress, anxiety, and chronic pain.

Nalu Bio is leading the way in the development of a new category of cannabinoids with their scalable, chemistry-based proprietary synthesis platform that produces an ultra-pure, consistently performing CBD without the ever-present risk of contamination from THC, heavy metals or pesticides inherent in hemp-extraction. As summed up by the investment bank Raymond James, “The only truly commercial alternative modality for large-scale production of pure cannabinoids is chemical synthesis.”
