Our Process

Edible CBD Co. believes that if you want to create the best products available you have to set a standard for what you create. Once you do, you can then partner with the people and companies that can help you achieve your goal. Not all hemp is created equal, which means not all CBD is the same.

Edible CBD Co. chose their partners very carefully in order to further their mission of creating the world’s best organically grown hemp CBD products. They decided to partner with the largest grower, manufacturer and distributor of USDA Certified Organic hemp-derived phytocannabinoids in the U.S. after extensive research and due-diligence. This partner makes the raw USDA Certified Organic hemp compounds we use in our products.

How do we guarantee that the hemp extracts we use in our products are of the highest quality possible? We build a partnership that combines the talents of some of the world’s leading scientists, chemists, veterinarians, formulators and experts in the hemp industry. These experts then consult with our industry-leading marketing and services group to create our final product.

Our proprietary and GMP-certified process overview is outlined below.

Every product Edible CBD Co. creates starts with our proprietary, USDA Certified Organic, feminized strains of phytocannabinoid-rich hemp. All of the hemp we use is grown in the nutrient-rich soil of Colorado. Our farmers operate under strict guidelines and use only 100% USDA Organic Certified practices.

We take advantage of a state-of-the-art farming process. Not only does this enhance the quality of our natural proprietary strains, but it also makes sure our products are safe, regulated and unsurpassed in their potency and consistency.

The plants we use are dried and warehoused after they are harvested. When we need a plant for production, the flowers and leaves are *exclusively used in order to mill them into a coarse powder. The milling process adheres to the highest quality standards in the industry. Once processed, it is shipped to our processing and manufacturing facility also found in Colorado.

*The stalk, stem, root and seeds are NOT used in our milling process. This eliminates the unwanted byproducts that can cause unfavorable flavors and after-taste.

We use a proprietary organic hemp extraction and purification process. This makes sure that all of hemp’s beneficial phytocannabinoids, terpenes and flavonoids are preserved. It also gets rid of unwanted compounds while preventing natural molecules from degrading. The result? The highest quality hemp oil available.

Every drop of our phytocannabinoid-rich (PCR) hemp oil retains the naturally occurring cannabinoids present in the hemp plant. You will also find a variety of naturally occurring terpenes, flavonoids and amino acids. What this means for you is that Edible CBD Co.’s products contain a broad spectrum of beneficial natural compounds.

While CBD on its own offers many benefits, a growing body of research has found that a phytocannabinoid-rich product (a product containing other naturally occurring cannabinoids and terpenes derived from hemp) leads to multiplying benefits. This is called the Entourage Effect.

But the process isn’t quite done. Once extracted, the oil is then pressed to separate most of the oil from undesirable plant solids like waxes.

The oil is then distilled to separate the hemp extract from the food-grade ethanol used in the extraction process. In fact, we are one of the few facilities in the world that use this food-grade ethanol.

One of the most important steps in the process is to remove even the most minute traces of THC. THC is the compound found in hemp and cannabis that produces the “high” associated with the plant.

We use proprietary technology to remove unwanted compounds still present in the oil. These compounds include wax, chlorophyll, plant pigments and trace amounts of THC. It is then “washed” and “polished” to create the highest quality, THC-free CBD oil available.

Because our products are 100% THC free, we can ship them across state lines.

We test every production run for quality and potency. This makes sure that all of the cannabinoids, terpenes, essential fatty acids and phytonutrients are consistent and pure.

Every batch goes through rigorous testing in our in-house laboratory. When the batch passes, it receives a Certificate of Analysis that we make available to our customers. We also use third-party labs to verify and confirm the certificates. Click here and enter the batch number from your product to get the results.

Some of our products require our oil to go through another processing step. The raw hemp oil goes through a proprietary process that transforms it into nano-sized emulsions. This makes it the most bioavailable CBD in the industry.

Our competitors’ hemp oil particles are anywhere between 150 and 5000 nanometers in size. Our particles are 25-60. This small size gives them better bioavailability, leading to much more effective absorption.

This nano-emulsion process can make our softgel formulas at least two times more bioavailable than oil-based products.

What does this mean for you? You can use less of the product made with this process to achieve the same level of benefit as the products sold by most of our competitors. We think that’s a reason to celebrate.

Premier products, premier value, premier results. Because, like we said, not all hemp is created equal, and neither are all CBD products.
