SOUTH EASTON, MA / ACCCESSWIRE / December 1, 2023 / Pressure BioSciences, Inc. (OTCQB:PBIO) (“PBIO” or “Company”), a leader in the development and sale of broadly enabling, pressure-based instruments, consumables, and specialty process development and testing services to the global nutraceuticals, cosmeceuticals, food/beverage, biotherapeutics, and other industries, and the Veterans Service Team (“VST”), a self-funded, 501(c)(3) non-profit company dedicated to the support and wellness of active duty and former members of all branches of the US Military and US Coast Guard, today announced that VST has launched public availability of their first collaboration product, a Nano CBD Topical Spray with revolutionary fast performance enabled by PBIO’s unique, patented UltraShear™ nanoemulsions platform technology. Marketed by VST, the product is named “Valor CBD” inspired by the courage of our Nation’s true heroes, the men and women who have selflessly served our country.

“There are few organizations with a mission as honorable as VST’s, supporting veteran’s challenges of pain, PTSD, anxiety, and more, and focused on helping them in multiple ways to succeed and thrive,” said Richard T. Schumacher, PBIO’s President & CEO. “The remarkable performance of the UltraShear Nano-CBD product is closely aligned with that mission (fast-absorbing with reliable payload delivery) to ensure our Vets are getting the best-in-class CBD product on the market, which they so eminently deserve! Our UltraShear Nano-CBD Topical Spray is now available to VST members and non-members alike as “Valor CBD” at www.vst.org, with all profits going to charities supporting veterans and animal welfare.”

The UltraShear™ Difference

PBIO’s UltraShear™ Technology (UltraShear^TM or UST^TM) platform allows oil-soluble active molecules (like CBD) to be prepared into nanoemulsions of vanishingly tiny oil droplets in water. The precisely controlled resulting nano-emulsion ensures breakthrough speed of absorption and unparalleled circulating availability of the active oil-soluble ingredients (CBD or other active molecules) to the water-based biochemistry of our bodies (human or animals). “Quite simply, conventional oil and cream products have a low rate of absorption, so the products do not work quickly or effectively. Products made with our UltraShear platform change that equation completely, producing nanoemulsions of CBD oil in water (“Nano CBD”), that deliver unprecedented speed of topical action, unparalleled bioavailability, and reliably dosed payload delivery,” commented John B. Hollister, PBIO’s Director of Marketing and Sales. Mr. Hollister added that PBIO is now capable of commercially processing Nano CBD in the Company’s west coast partner’s manufacturing facilities.

Accelerating the Partnership and Sales

This past summer, PBIO announced a five-year strategic partnership with VST, focused on benefiting the broad active duty and veteran’s communities. Howard Zall, COO of VST, stated that VST had independently determined that PBIO’s Ultra Shear Technology was the world’s leading platform for creating the most highly effective nanoemulsions of CBD in either topical or oral spray formats. Mr. Zall further commented that VST was delighted to work with PBIO to quickly get the Nano CBD product into the hands of VST members to help address and manage their diversity of critical needs. Following the announced launch, Mr. Zall commented: “With our quickly growing membership base, significant industry endorsements, and recently announced partnership with the exceptional athlete Cat Zingano (VST Ambassador), we’re seeing a rapid increase in momentum for our organization and our products.”

Cat Zingano recently announced her partnership with VST via Facebook, saying: “They do amazing work to enhance the well-being of US military members and veterans. I’m looking forward to helping grow [VST’s] reach and impact.”

Ric Schumacher summarized the outlook for this exciting partnership: “VST’s goal is to grow membership to exceed two million of the nearly 18 million active-duty personnel and veterans within the next five years. PBIO and VST believe that PBIO’s revenue from this relationship will significantly grow year-over-year, initially from annual revenue of about $1.0M to more than $10M in the fifth year of the agreement. Together with VST, PBIO believes we will reach sales of up to 50K spray bottles in Year 1 to approximately 500K spray bottles in Year 5 – just for Nano-CBD products sales (both topical and oral). This is just the beginning of a long-term partnership. PBIO investors and VST members can expect to see more UltraShear-processed products offered through VST in the months and years ahead.”
