Xtracted Labs was officially incorporated in 2012 in Seattle. The company was founded by a group of experienced cannabis producers who hoped to help shape the new and flourishing industry. They adopted the phrase “safe for the processor, safe for the patient” as their mantra, and began working closely with state and local officials to help and put together what ultimately became the rules for the adult recreational cannabis use market in Washington.
Xtracted Labs invited a huge range of influential people to their lab including the Department of Labor, the Department of Agriculture, the Liquor Board, all of the state’s Fire Marshals, as well as elected state officials, with the aim of helping to create sensible regulation surrounding cannabis.
The company aims to position itself as an industry leader through example. Ryan Abernathy, one of the company’s founders, has an impressive CV in this respect. He has served on several state advisory panels, as a member of FOCUS (Foundation of Cannabis Unified Standards), he has spoken on nation panels such as MJ Biz Con, The Cannabis Grand Crew, High Times Cups, and he is also a contributing author for Leafly, Dope Magazine and many local media outlets.
By putting good practices in place and adhering to the highest standards from day one, Xtracted Labs has become known as an industry leader and is one of the most highly respected processors in one of America’s first legal markets. They have now expanded out of Washington and have licensing partnerships in Maine and Alaska. They aim to create a climate of safety, sensibility and accountability throughout the entire cannabis industry while producing the world’s best concentrates.
They have three product lines. Refine Seattle is a top of the line hash oil product made from extraction that meets high standards of aroma, flavor, appearance and effect. Northwest Concentrate is Xtracted Lab’s value brand that competes with most competitors top shelf offerings. Refine Distillates is purified, potent, fully activated cannabinoids offered in a wide variety of delivery systems for ease of use.
