WILSON, N.C., Oct. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Averix Bio is proud to announce that it has successfully completed an independent audit for 21 CFR Part 210 and Part 211 cGMP compliance of API phytocannabinoid CBD isolate in the U.S. as well as for ICH Q7 standards.
"This is an historic milestone for Averix Bio, the biopharmaceutical sector and the CBD industry," said Miles Wright, CEO of Averix Bio. "By reaching the FDA's rigorous criteria for producing active pharmaceutical ingredients, Averix is proud to help drive research, launch APIs and finished products, and collaborate with partners as a science-driven manufacturer that minimizes supply-chain risk. We will partner with life science and other companies exploring the use of cannabinoids in their products and research."
The compliance audit was conducted by the ProPharma Group, a leading global, independent, single-source provider of regulatory, clinical and compliance services serving pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device companies.

"Averix is pioneering a fully transparent and highly controlled program with select industrial hemp farmers and genetic companies to gather data on genetics, nutrients, organic practices and the benefits of heightened consistency and quality management," he noted.
"Averix will be the ingredient partner of choice for manufacturers in multiple sectors looking for a tier 1 vendor," said Mark Ward, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "Most companies are very interested in reducing their supply chain risks – Averix is your insurance policy."
