Christina Lake Cannabis Saves $200k in Labor and Doubles QC Speed
CASE STUDY
The Challenge
In 2025, Christina Lake Cannabis increased harvest volume by more than 50 percent. The team needed to move product through post harvest just as fast. Quality control and quality assurance quickly became the slowdown. Trimming moved faster than inspection, and bags of finished flower began to stack up. This caused delays, added stress on staff, and slowed packaging.
The Solution
Christina Lake Cannabis added the Marvel AI machine right after machine trimming. All trimmed flower now runs through Marvel. Each flower is checked and sorted into clear groups. These include flowers ready to package, micro flower, flowers with defects, and flowers that need more trimming.
The Results
- 2x faster QC and QA with the same crew
- More consistent quality in every bag
- QC and QA delays removed from the process
- About $200,000 per year saved in labor costs
Intelligent decisioning, not just automation, creating Closed-loop flow control. Marvel evaluates trim quality and contamination, determines the optimal next step, and executes that step all at once.
“Doubled the QC capacity per day without adding any additional labour.”
