Analytical testing of cannabinoid raw materials and products (in response to the proposed new THC residual standard value)

Flow diagram of analytical testing services for cannabinoid raw materials and products

At CBD Library, we act as an intermediary and undertake quantitative analysis testing of cannabinoid raw materials and products by a third-party analytical testing agency in the United States.

Once you send us a sample, we will deliver a component analysis sheet called a COA (Certificate of analysis) under your company's name.

\Improved credibility in compliance, public relations and marketing /

This service answers the concerns and needs of CBD brands and importers.

  • I want to know if the products I handle meet the proposed new THC residual standards.
  • Is the COA provided by the manufacturer (importer) accurate? I want to double check.
  • There is a COA for the raw materials, but no COA for the final processed product
  • You need your own COA to submit to payment processors and malls
  • We want to demonstrate our reliability to wholesalers and consumers by having our products analyzed and inspected by a third party.
  • Is there any problem with the ingredients of the sample product? I want to be sure before placing a formal order.

Increased credibility in terms of compliance, public relations, and marketing

A COA is required for the official import of CBD (cannabidiol).

Even if you receive a COA from the manufacturer, if THC (tetrahydrocannabinol, a regulated substance in Japan) is later detected in the product or if it does not contain the CBD amount listed, your company will be held responsible and its reliability will be questioned.

▶︎ CBD testing methods that CBD businesses should know

Recently, retailers and consumers have become more critical of quality, and we are starting to see comments like the ones below on social media and in group chats.

  • "Does that product really not contain THC (tetrahydrocannabinol, a substance regulated in Japan)?"
  • Does it really contain as much CBD as it claims?
  • "The COA isn't listed on the website, which seems suspicious."

In other words, having a COA in your company's name is a source of peace of mind when selecting a product.

This service will increase your credibility not only in terms of compliance, but also in terms of public relations and marketing.

In Japan, where THC is strictly regulated, there is no standard standard, so there are virtually no institutions that can perform quantitative analysis testing for CBD/THC.

If you wish to have a COA issued in your company's name, you will also need to request it from an overseas analysis and testing agency.

Please use this service as a platform.

Combined with our import support service, we can provide you with comprehensive support.
