White Paper: Crude VS. Purified CBD Oil

Our in-house analytical capabilities also allow us to evaluate products that our customers have bought from other manufacturers or wholesalers. Oftentimes, our customers find out through our analytical testing that the product they have purchased from other manufacturers does not contain the cannabinoid content or more THC than they were promised.

The integrity of our product is of utmost importance to us, which is why it is imperative for us to test for purity. In addition to verifying cannabidiol concentration, we ensure our oil contains the appropriate levels of broad spectrum cannabinoids including Cannabigerol (CBG), Cannabichromene (CBC) and Cannabinol (CBN). All finished products are tested prior to distribution. We also work closely with ISO 17025 and CDPHE certified third-party labs to make sure our test results are consistent with their analysis.

Throughout the process of extracting CBD from industrial hemp, we use production samples to ensure that the product meets specifications. This testing is routinely performed to ensure purity, efficacy, and concentration.

We test hemp plants brought in from farmers across Colorado to help them determine the ideal time to harvest. Testing the plants before and throughout the process means there is no guess work. We also complete ID testing on our other ingredients, such as MCT oil, to ensure it meets specifications and does not have microbial contamination before using it for formulation. The finished CBD product we process is exactly what was expected – raw material testing ensures consistency in the quality of our product with every batch.
