VT Dry & Cure Technologies, the makers of Cannatrol, a Vermont-based provider of cannabis drying, curing and storage technology, announced a $1.5 million seed funding round led by the Vermont Center for Emerging Technologies (VCET) and The Dudley Fund. Cannatrol’s patented Vaportrol Technology enables its drying, curiing and storage systems to maximize potency, preserve terpenes and increase yields, while helping cultivators reduce labor.

“Many cultivators invest significant time and effort in the growing process, but if that same care isn’t taken post-harvest, they’re not producing the highest-quality cannabis possible. Our patented Vaportrol Technology is purpose built for post-harvest processing and gives cultivators of all sizes consistent, repeatable results with higher yields and reduced labor. The industry to date has been utilizing traditional HVAC systems, designed, and built for comfort cooling and heating,” Jane Sandelman, CEO of VT Dry & Cure told Benzinga.

“We’re changing that, and forward-thinking cultivators throughout the country have already realized positive ROI after deploying our technology. This funding will help us educate more people about Cannatrol and ultimately revolutionize this critical step in the cannabis cultivation process.”

While much focus has been placed on genetics, strains and cultivation methods in terms of cannabis flower, Cannatrol says effective drying, curing and storage are key to producing high quality products and driving profitability.

Leading brands such as In Good Health, Elevate Missouri and Nimbus Cannabis already leverage Cannatrol to gain full control of the post-harvest process.

“Vermont Center for Emerging Technologies has directly assisted over 3,000 entrepreneurs, makers, doers and innovators. We were inspired by how the VT Dry & Cure team, innovative technology and manufacturing operation are making positive impacts in rural Vermont and beyond,” stated Samantha Roach-Gerber of VCET. “We look forward to seeing what Cannatrol can achieve with this investment from the VCET-managed Vermont Seed Capital Fund.”
