QUALITY MANUFACTURING RELYS ON COMPLIANCE/CONFORMANCE

Hemp has an extensive history with up to 50,000 uses and continues to provide new applications for our health and environmental benefit. To ensure product safety for consumers, regulatory bodies establish specific industry controls to which businesses must operate and
legally comply.

Getting your operational activities in total compliance/conformance with these regulations and standards can be quite the task. Being new to the process or not having the time to sort through and make sense of so much legal and technical information can be both complex and overwhelming.

We are here to help.

CONSUMER HEALTH & PRODUCT SAFETY
MUST COME FIRST

With this in mind, standardization is critical because lawmakers turn to single or multiple standards to define operational requirements for establishing controls found in written regulations (GAP/GMP/GLP) and leading international industry standards (ISO).

Various agencies (Federal, State, Local) then enforce these regulations by performing inspections to verify GAP/GMP/GLP compliance.

Similarly, accredited third-party assessment bodies verify conformance and/or compliance to various industry standards (ISO) when certification, accreditation and industry recognition is the goal.

STREAMLINE OPERATIONS FOR CONSISTENT QUALITY PRODUCTS

Applying best practices from the start will minimize risk, tighten efficiencies and provide a solid roadmap for continual improvement. For hemp businesses, this serves to establish a well-run GAP/GMP/GLP/ISO facility that meets both regulatory compliance requirements and demonstrates conformance to
ISO standards.

Using best practice methodologies will streamline your operations, save time and money, and allow you to market your brand, as a world-class operation that has the documentation to prove it.
Taking this approach will bring confidence and peace of mind, and has proven to accelerate growth for greater return.
