Hemp Testing in Colorado

As hemp-sourced CBD products gain popularity with consumers, increasing regulations have been put in place to ensure product consistency, quality, and safety. Increased competition in the industry has driven brands to raise their standard of quality higher than ever before, implementing a range of quality assurance testing measures to guarantee that consumers receive only the very best.

Additionally, for Colorado Department of Agriculture (CDA) registered hemp cultivators and Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment (CDPHE) hemp products manufacturers, new rules are in effect requiring testing, dictating legal requirements for all industrial hemp products. Before products can be offered for sale in Colorado recreational or medical dispensaries, state-approved hemp testing must be completed. Nordic Analytical Laboratories has been approved to conduct MED-required hemp testing, providing our clients with exceptionally accurate, fast, and convenient testing to suit their specific needs.

Industrial Hemp Cultivators Registered with the CDA

In order to submit hemp flower samples, registered cultivators must sign up for METRC access and transfer samples through METRC with a manifest and tags. For more information on getting started with METRC, visit https://www.metrc.com/colorado-industrial-hemp.

Industrial Hemp Product Manufacturers

In order to submit hemp product samples, Nordic requests that registered manufacturers send a valid copy of their CDPHE registration prior to submitting samples. Once samples are received, we will create the necessary METRC tags and process samples accordingly.
