As global demand for TAAT® has grown since its first U.S. launch in December 2020, the Company has engineered a variation of its Beyond Tobacco™ base material using reconstituted plant-based materials for international markets to which the current hemp-based formulation cannot be imported due to its CBD and negligible THC content. To capitalize on this global opportunity, TAAT® has filed an expedited U.S. patent covering this expanded scope of base materials in addition to proprietary integrations with smartphones and wearable technologies to assist current smokers with switching to TAAT® and observing its benefits through empirical data captured with artificial intelligence (“AI”).
LAS VEGAS and VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TAAT® GLOBAL ALTERNATIVES INC. (CSE: TAAT) (OTCQX: TOBAF) (FRANKFURT: 2TP) (the “Company” or “TAAT®”) is pleased to announce that it has filed an expedited patent application in the United States for a refinement process of the Beyond Tobacco™ base material for TAAT® in which a broader scope of reconstituted materials containing zero hemp can be utilized to produce a nicotine-free and tobacco-free smoking experience substantially resembling that of a traditional tobacco cigarette, without any residual cannabinoids (e.g., mullein, hops, lavender, chamomile, ginseng, sage, and peppermint). While cannabis is currently permitted in several global markets, it remains illegal in most others including the majority of Asian nations1. As TAAT® sets out to capture an even greater market share in the USD $812 billion global tobacco industry, the Company has recognized the importance of making its nicotine-free and tobacco-free product saleable in a broader range of nations around the world by developing a Beyond Tobacco™ formulation using reconstituted biomass with zero hemp.
