Red Light Holland, an Ontario-based corporation engaged in the production, growth, and sale of functional mushrooms and mushroom home grow kits in North America and Europe, as well as a brand of psilocybin truffles in the legal, recreational market within the Netherlands, said its research and development partner Irvine Labs in California, United States has received its Controlled Substances Import Permit for psilocybin raw materials (truffles) from the company's farm in Horst, the Netherlands.

With both the DEA quota and import permit now secured, Irvine Labs and Red Light Holland will proceed with the shipment of 3 kg of raw psilocybin material from the company's farm in the Netherlands in the coming weeks.

Irvine Labs is licensed for prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) drug manufacturing by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and is a DEA Schedule 1 Bulk drug cultivator, manufacturer, importer and exporter; including psilocybin, psilocin, marijuana, THC, extracts, DET, DMT, LSD, peyote and mescaline.

Through Red Light Holland's partnership with Irvine Labs and the implementation of proprietary preservation technology, Red Light Holland aims to develop dehydration, manufacturing and storage protocols that maintain the integrity of natural compounds while extending product shelf life.

Red Light and Irvine Labs have a combined goal to develop a commercialized and standardized product from the company's psilocybin truffles that can be legally exported to emerging markets and used in government-funded pilot programs and clinical trials within the United States.
