Heavy metals testing
The importance of heavy metals testing
Heavy metals testing will identify any potential contamination, such as arsenic, lead, cadmium and mercury, in products that can be harmful to consumers if consumed. Pollutants from industry, pesticides from agriculture and vehicle exhaust fumes, can increase levels of metals in the environment resulting in contamination of the soil and water supply. Plants such as hemp and tobacco can absorb heavy metals and other compounds from the soil and vape devices can generate metals through usage, so it is important to test these products for potential contamination.

Our lab technicians will test quantitatively for up to 23 different metal impurities, which can be the result of plant cultivation or the manufacturing process. These are: aluminium, arsenic, boron, cadmium, calcium, chromium, copper, iron, lead, magnesium, manganese, mercury, molybdenum, nickel, phosphorous, silicon, silver, sodium, sulphur, tin, titanium, vanadium and zinc.
The following will be identified for each type of product analysed:
TPD/TRPR e-liquids emissions – metals and silicates
CBD and hemp productions – metal contamination
medicinal cannabis products – metal contamination
traditional herbal medicines (THRs) – metal contamination
foods / water / soil / environmental – metal contamination.
