      How to Choose a Compliant Hemp Testing Laboratory

      One of the most dangerous and widespread issues in hemp testing is how inaccurate or varied the results can be. You don’t have to dig deep to find an onslaught of evidence that shows precision is the exception to the rule. Jama’s study, for example, showed that only 17% of lab results accurately profiled cannabinoid concentration in edibles. That means a sizable portion of samples contained more THC than the results indicated. And as a result of mistakes like these, hemp companies will accidentally mislabel their products. This can have serious consequences for customers who mistakenly ingest these mislabeled products and experience unwanted psychoactive effects. Situations like these are not uncommon, which is why hemp companies must carefully choose a third-party laboratory. The laboratory should not only meet certification requirements, but also exceed them while showing expertise in testing each of the major hemp product types. But it’s not always easy to discern between the leaders and the newcomers. Laboratories may have fancy websites and marketing that can mask serious inefficiencies behind the scenes. That’s why I want to cover exactly what qualifications and parameters hemp companies must consider before choosing a lab they can trust.
