CDPHE Compliance Testing
As of July 1 2021, Colorado wholesale industrial hemp manufacturers must test all industrial hemp products according to the Colorado Code of Regulations 1010-21. This means all industrial hemp product testing must be conducted at a CDPHE- certified laboratory such as InfiniteCAL. After mycotoxins, pesticides, heavy metals, and residual solvent analysis have been completed, a Certificate of Analysis (COA) will be issued and can be used for each following producer unless the product is further concentrated or one of those hazards is introduced at a later manufacturing step.
The Colorado Hemp industry can now count on InfiniteCAL for accurate, reliable, and constant lab results for their compliance testing, as well as any quality assurance testing.
