Radient Technologies Inc. (“Radient” or the
“Company”) (
TSX Venture: RTI; OTCQX: RDDTF) is
pleased to announce it has awarded the mandate for the second phase
of the construction of its Edmonton III manufacturing facility to
Fillmore Construction Management Inc. (“Fillmore”). Construction is
well underway, with footings and foundation work having been
completed, and the structural component of the building now in
progress and on schedule. Fillmore was selected by Radient due to
its extensive previous experience developing food processing and
GMP approved manufacturing plants.
Edmonton III is Radient’s expanded capacity
cannabis and hemp processing line that is expected to have a total
annual throughput capacity of 280,000 kg/year of cannabis, and
2,800,000 kg/year of hemp upon completion in calendar 2020.

extraction run for Aurora Cannabis Inc. (“Aurora”) (TSX: ACB; NYSE:
ACB) in May 2019 at its Edmonton I Facility, which has an annual
throughput capacity of at least 56,000 kg of cannabis/year. Radient
will continue to scale up its operations at Edmonton I throughout
the summer, expecting to reach full capacity at this facility in
late 2019.
Additionally, the ongoing retrofitting of
Edmonton II, Radient’s dedicated hemp processing line, which is
expected to have a total annual throughput capacity of 420,000
kg/year of hemp, is on schedule for completion in calendar Q4,
2019.
Foundation work has also now begun on Radient’s
brand new 100,000+ sq. ft. facility in Germany. This facility is
expected to have a total annual throughput capacity in excess of
280,000 kg/year of cannabis, and 2,800,000 kg/year of hemp upon
