What is Third-Party Testing?

If you’ve ever purchased CBD, you have probably come across “third-party testing” or maybe “third-party analysis.” While it sounds good on paper, do you know what it actually means? Is it even necessary? If you’re curious, go on and read to learn more.
What Does it Involve?
Third-party testing or analysis means an independent lab or company checks the contents of a CBD product. Since the company isn’t involved with manufacturing, producing, or selling the item, it can maintain independence since it has no stake in the particular item. Additionally, these labs or companies must be certified and compliant with rules and regulations to ensure accurate results. It’s important to note that these third-party facilities are certified on various local, state, and national levels.
Not only do these third-party entities check the contents of products but also the manufacturing process. By doing so, the lab certifies that the process from beginning to end is safe to ensure customers get the safest products possible. The lab can also discover if there are any problems or discrepancies with the manufacturer’s process.
Why is it Important?
One of the most crucial aspects of third-party analysis is confirming that the information on the label is accurate. These labs will ensure that the quantity of CBD on the label matches the contents. They will also verify the ingredient list to rule out adulterants or unlisted items. Plus, these companies will check that there aren’t substances like mold, heavy metals, and E. coli that can harm customers. When you see that your product has been third-party tested, you can have greater trust in the purity and safety of what you’re getting.
