We are using the best technology, science, experience, innovation, and care to provide our patients with the best solutions to their needs. We look forward to exporting our excellent products to the rapidly opening new markets." In designing and constructing its new plant, Bazelet has engaged the best engineering, equipment, air-control and safety expertise to ensure smooth, accurate, automatic and reliable production. Bazelet will operate according to GMP (good manufacturing practices) at the new premises. The plant features several clean rooms for special products and will operate with a drying and curing capacity sufficient to treat 300-400 tons of cannabis per year and with extraction capacity at around 60 tons per year.

Bazelet has a strong and innovative R&D team of scientists and experts from a range of fields including chemistry, biology, neurology, analytical chemistry, pharmacology, herbal treatment, plant extracts, and bee's science. It is well networked in the Israeli scientific community, including university labs and university hospitals. Bazelet's team uses its science, diversity, creativity, vast patient knowhow and proprietary manufacturing knowledge to best serve its patients, to further improve production, to form new products and delivery methods and to explore new applications for its products. This work has led so far to 14 provisional patent applications, with seven of them in the PCT stage.

A recent product of Bazelet's innovative R&D group are new cannabis formulations directed to enhance the therapeutic effect in an array of conditions, including treatment of pain, anxiety, various neurological conditions, auto-immune diseases, conditions related to women health and wellness and conditions characterizing geriatric populations. Another set of formulations is directed to the treatment of children, including cases of epilepsy and autism, aiming to reduce putative long-term effects in this population. Those formulations are based on cannabis enrichment with particular terpene blends, specific for each indication. Bazelet's first patent application in this field was published recently, the International Search Report (ISR) promisingly found all claims possessed Utility, Novelty, and an Inventive Step. "I am proud of our diverse, innovative and fruitful R&D team. Our new terpene-enriched products are tailored to the specific needs of the various groups of patients for improved therapeutic effects," said Prof. Aharon (Ari) Eyal, CSO at Bazelet. Intellectual property has also covered extraction methods, a cannabis-based veterinary composition for improving the health of bees and a honey-cannabinoid composition.
