Cannabis testing is by far the smallest segment of the industry when measured by number of companies. But the work labs perform is critical from a health and safety perspective. Based on test type, cannabis testing can be classified into terpene profiling, potency testing, pesticide screening, residual solvent screening, microbial analysis, genetic testing, and heavy metal testing.

Aside from providing transparency, cannabis companies understand that providing potency information can drive purchasing decisions for many consumers and patients. Testing for residual solvents, and homogeneity can be performed by most labs, though the degree to which clients are demanding these services varies. Cannabis Investor Pitch Deck

For the past two years, a majority of testing lab survey participants have indicated high- pressure liquid chromatography is their primary testing method, and that holds true this year as well. While it is still the most prevalent technique, the portion of companies that utilize high-pressure liquid chromatography has fallen from 63% last year to 50% this year.

Growing recreational and personal use of cannabis is expected to boost the market during the forecast period.

Global cannabis testing market is projected to grow by over $950 million by 2025, driven by a revised compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.6%. The growth in this market is mainly driven by legalization of medical cannabis, coupled with the growing number of cannabis testing laboratories.
