How are Equilibria products sourced, extracted, and tested?Updated 4 days ago

At Equilibria, we’re committed to the highest standards of quality, potency, and purity—starting with our hemp and continuing through every step of our process.   From our certified-organic farm to our solventless extraction and rigorous lab testing, we put care into every detail so you can feel confident in the products you’re using.


🌱 Where is Equilibria’s hemp grown?

Our hemp is grown on a 400-acre certified organic farm about three hours from Denver. From cultivation to extraction, everything happens on-site at our hemp source, which means we’re able to ensure transparency and consistency at every step.


🧪How is your hemp extracted?

Our hemp is processed using a proprietary, solventless method - Terpex (TM) - that uses low temperature and low pressure to gently extract cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids—no harsh chemicals or heat required.

This method is designed to:

  • Preserve more of the plant’s natural compounds

  • Eliminate the risk of residual solvents

  • Deliver consistent, high-quality results

💧 What does “solventless extraction” really mean?

Instead of using ethanol or CO₂, our hemp source uses a plant-derived extract created from the hemp itself—essentially letting the plant process the plant. The result: a clean, gentle process that retains the plant’s full character.


🌿 Why do you use “wet processing”?

Unlike many processors, our hemp source skips the drying step and processes the hemp fresh from the field. This helps preserve up to 300% more terpenes and flavonoids—compounds that contribute to the entourage effect, which may help enhance how cannabinoids interact in the body.


✅ Is your hemp certified organic?

Yes. Our hemp is grown using certified organic methods with carefully selected genetics. No pesticides, no synthetic additives - just clean, outdoor grown hemp. It’s also:

  • CGMP-certified (pharmaceutical-grade handling)

  • Backed by a top-tier AA audit rating

  • Fully traceable from seed to bottle

🌎Is your extraction process sustainable?

Our hemp extraction process is designed with the planet in mind. It:

  • Uses significantly less energy than CO₂ or ethanol-based methods

  • Produces no petrochemical waste

  • Relies on a closed-loop system that minimizes environmental impact

🔄 How do you ensure consistency in your products?

To keep your experience reliable, we process our hemp in large, single-batch runs. Even with natural variation, our formulations are designed to maintain month-to-month consistency in cannabinoid and terpene profiles.


🧫 How are your products tested?

We take product safety seriously. Every batch goes through in-house testing at multiple stages, and final products are tested again by an independent, third-party lab. These labs verify that our products meet strict standards for:

  • Potency (accurate cannabinoid levels)

  • Purity (free from pesticides, heavy metals, residual solvents, and other contaminants)

Third-party lab testing offers unbiased verification from an outside source, ensuring the product you receive is safe, pure, and accurately labeled. It's one of the most important things to look for when choosing any hemp or cannabis product.
