The Science Behind Our Technology
Cannabinoids are naturally lipophilic and water-insoluble, which present formulation challenges when incorporated into aqueous products or developed for different routes of administration. Trait’s research focuses on technologies that address these challenges and provide greater flexibility for cannabinoid formulation, delivery, bioavailability, stability, and CBD functional efficacy.
True Aqueous Solutions
Trait water-soluble CBDs allow for homogeneous, high-dose aqueous formulations, forming true solutions (not suspensions, emulsions, or nanosystems).
Bioavailability & Stability
Trait’s water-soluble CBDs deliver superior bioavailability and are highly stable in body fluids.
IP-Protected & Supply-Chain Ready
Trait water-soluble CBDs are patent-protected, manufactured under strict pharma-GMP quality standards, and are global supply-chain ready.
Human & Pet Wellness
Trait’s CBDs provide competitive wellness benefits in both humans and pets.
