Unlocking Product Insights: Quality Assurance Testing at California Ag Labs

Quality assurance testing at California Ag Labs offers a valuable alternative to California compliant testing, without the need for regulatory reporting. This type of testing is commonly utilized by licensed businesses seeking additional information about their products, ensuring they meet industry standards. It serves as a proactive approach to product evaluation and improvement.


For instance, Quality Assurance (RND) testing enables growers to monitor and manage the cannabinoid and terpene profiles of their plants. By detecting potential contaminants at an early stage, growers can prevent the risk of losing an entire project and implement effective risk mitigation strategies. Early detection through RND testing eliminates any uncertainty, making it a perfect solution to safeguard the progress of your project.


When opting for a quality assurance test, clients have the convenience of either dropping off their samples directly at our laboratory or arranging for a California Ag Labs staff member to collect the samples. Notably, these samples are not reported to METRC. Once received, our team performs thorough testing and evaluation, issuing a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) with published data to the client. In the event of a sample failure, the client gains detailed insights into the specific issues with their product, allowing them to take informed action.


We highly recommend undergoing quality assurance testing for new products, as it provides cost-saving benefits and reveals specific test attributes before submitting for compliance testing. This proactive approach empowers businesses to maintain control over their products' quality, optimize resources, and ensure compliance with industry standards.


Choose California Ag Labs for your quality assurance testing needs, and gain valuable insights that drive product improvement and cost efficiency. Our commitment to accurate testing, insightful reporting, and industry expertise sets us apart as a trusted partner in elevating the quality and success of your cannabis products.
