We believe in the nutritional spectrum and health benefits of hemp and adding a consumer goods vertical was a logical progression as consumer data shows strong trends in plant-based foods and nutritional products.

CROP Has a 50% Net Royalty on “Air Chronic” Vaporizer Line
Momentum Public Relations
Press Release: August 07, 2018
CROP Infrastructure Corp. (CSE: CROP) (OTCMKTS: CRXPF) (“CROP” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce a 50% net royalty on the Air Chronic Vaporizer line now available for pre-order at www.AIRChronic.com.
Air Chronic Vaporizers are a high quality low cost product that can be used with cannabis, tobacco and oils and sell for $79.99 USD. CROP will fund and assist Air Chronic with a social media marketing campaign targeting influencers in the cannabis space in order to gain brand awareness for the line.
A 2017 global e-cigarette and vaporizer market analysis and trends report states that the market is poised to grow at a CAGR of around 20.8% over the next decade to reach approximately USD $61.4 billion by 2025. Some of the prominent trends that the market is witnessing include the combination of E-cigarette/Vapes and cannabis as well as improvements in device technology and product innovation.1
“Vaping” is short for “vaporization” and refers to a method of cannabis consumption in which the user inhales cannabis “vapor” or aerosol. To create this vapor the active compounds in cannabis are heated at low temperatures. Unlike with smoking cannabis, no combustion or burning takes place at these lower temperatures so there is no smoke; “the cannabis vaporizer appears to be an ideal harm-reduction approach to safer use,” researchers concluded in 2015. Another recent study concluded cannabis heated to 200°C vaporized THC without creating several carcinogens associated with combustion, including benzene, toluene and naphthalene. Some cannabis users prefer vaping over smoking because it involves less side effects and risks for the respiratory system.2
CROP Infrastructure Director & CEO Michael Yorke states: “CROP continues to diversify its portfolio of cannabis related assets with the addition of this net 50% royalty on the Air Chronic Vaporizer line. Vaping is an increasing trend amongst cannabis users due to its ease of use and number of benefits compared to traditional consumption methods. We are excited by the initial social interest in Air Chronic Vapes and are pleased to offer this quality product at an extremely competitive price compared to similar models.”
