Do Delta-8 Products in Arkansas Go Through Third-Party Testing?

Normally yes, Delta-8 products in Arkansas would typically undergo third-party testing. These independent laboratories test the products to ensure they comply with legal THC limits (less than 0.3% Delta-9 THC), and to assess for contaminants such as pesticides, heavy metals, and residual solvents, ensuring that Delta-8 products are safe, accurately labeled, and meet quality standards before reaching consumers. However, it is worth noting that as of 2024, the legal status of Delta-8 THC is currently being heard by a Federal Judge that opposes Arkansas’ previous legislature that banned Delta-8 entirely. In any case, it is always recommended that you take the time to review these lab reports to ensure product safety and potency, regardless of legal requirements.
