If you’re looking for a CBD company that is wholly dedicated to transparency, quality, customer service, and sustainability, let us introduce you to Hemp Bombs.

Founded in 2016, Hemp Bombs is a Tampa-based company which offers a wide range of products made from 99 percent pure CBD isolate. Aside from the actual industrial hemp cultivation, Hemp Bombs manages everything in-house—including manufacturing, packaging, and shipping.

They’ve built strong partnerships with distributors throughout the United States, and their products can be found across the country in convenience stores and smoke shops. But, for the widest selection of quality CBD products, Hemp Bombs’ site is your best bet.

Hemp Bombs’ Dedication to Quality

Hemp Bombs holds its industrial hemp to a very high standard. They believe that premium-quality CBD products must start with top-of-the-line industrial hemp.

Because hemp cultivation is the only aspect of the process which is not done in-house, Hemp Bombs constantly works to stay up-to-date on the best practices for growing the healthiest hemp and they closely monitor the quality and health of their hemp.

In order to get the highest quality CBD, they only use hemp which has been organic certified. This means that no harmful herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers, heavy metals, or fungicides have been used at any point during their cultivation.

What’s more, they ensure that the hemp is grown under conditions which are beneficial to both the customer and the environment. All their hemp is grown in clean soil using sustainable and environmentally-friendly farming methods.

Next, Hemp Bombs has partnered with experienced farmers who are experts in their field. These experienced professionals have spent years optimizing the hemp cultivation process. And, because they can both produce large quantities of industrial hemp and maintain the highest standards for their crops, Hemp Bombs can offer more affordable prices to their customers.

Additionally, all their farms are based here in the U.S., and each farmer is held to the same standard of 100 percent transparency.

Prior to this point, Hemp Bombs worked with farms based in Europe. However, as standards for industrial hemp growth here in the United States became more closely aligned with those in Europe, Hemp Bombs moved their hemp growing operations stateside. Regardless, from the inception of Hemp Bombs until now, their dedication to quality and purity has remained the same.

How Does Hemp Bombs Extract CBD From Their Industrial Hemp?

In order to get the purest product, Hemp Bombs uses supercritical CO₂ extraction. Essentially, Carbon dioxide—which behaves as a gas at room temperature and normal pressure—is cooled and compressed until it becomes a liquid. This usually happens at about 69 degrees Fahrenheit and at 75 pounds per square inch of pressure.

Then, a compressor and heater increases both the temperature and pressure applied to the liquid carbon dioxide. This increased temperature and pressure causes the carbon dioxide to become supercritical. This means that it adopts traits of both a gas and a liquid.

This supercritical carbon dioxide is then passed through the industrial hemp. In doing so, it extracts all the cannabinoids, terpenes, and other phytochemicals from the plant.

Lastly, the resulting solution—which contains CBD—is further filtered until it becomes 99 percent pure CBD isolate.

Third-Party Lab Testing

To ensure their 99 percent pure CBD isolate is safe and pure, Hemp Bombs conducts in-house and third-party lab tests. All their most current lab tests are available here. Performed by CW Laboratories, their most current certificate of analysis is also here.

The very basics of interpreting a certificate of analysis are that you never want to see any of the following products in your CBD extracts:

Herbicides
Pesticides
Growth hormones
Fertilizers
Microbial contaminants
Residual solvents
And heavy metals

What Do Other Customers Say About Hemp Bombs?

Marijuanabreak rates Hemp Bombs a solid 9 out of 10. They were very impressed with Hemp Bombs’ dedication to transparency, as their most current certificate of analysis is available on their site.

They were also impressed with the purity and quality of Hemp Bombs’ products. According to various members of the MJbreak team, Hemp Bombs’ products were effective at alleviating symptoms of depression, anxiety, chronic pain, and improving sleep.

Lastly, they were impressed with Hemp Bombs’ dedication to their regular customers. For instance, subscribers to Hemp Bombs’ newsletters receive regular discounts.

However, they were not too keen on the fact that Hemp Bombs’ products were made from 99 percent pure CBD isolate. In their opinion, a product containing the full spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes is more effective.

ShoppingCBD was similarly impressed by the quality and purity of Hemp Bombs’ products. Firstly, they noted the website was very well laid out. Hemp Bombs has a strong social media presence and works hard to cultivate a community around their products.

Additionally, they take that a step further and build a lifestyle around their products by showcasing them in recipes and activities. For instance, Hemp Bombs includes recipes for CBD oil lattes, cocktails. And homemade dog treats.

Their only gripe with Hemp Bombs’ products is that they are made from CBD isolate and don’t contain the full spectrum cannabinoids and terpenes. For this reason, they feel it won’t be as potent or effective for some users. The only exception to this is Hemp Bombs’ 4,000 mg CBD oil, which contains 66 mg per dose.

Hemp Bombs’ Shipping and Refund Policies

Hemp Bombs processes orders 24/7 but only ships their products on weekdays. This means if customers order their products on a Friday after 2:00 PM, they may not receive them until Tuesday.

If customers choose standard shipping, they’ll usually receive their products within 5-10 business days. Also, international shipping and orders being shipped to military addresses will take 4-6 weeks to arrive at their destinations.

Hemp Bombs offers a generous, no-exceptions 30-day refund policy to customers who have bought products directly from their online storefront. However, if Hemp Bombs receives numerous refund requests from the same individual or suspects that it might be bogus, they reserve the right to investigate and discontinue service to that individual.

In addition to the 30-day refund policy, customers can request an exchange for a product of equal or lesser value if they bought the products from Hemp Bombs’ online store. However, if customers exchange their products for one of lesser value, Hemp Bombs will not refund the difference. To return a product, simply fill out this contact form, and Hemp Bombs will reply with the return address.

If customers did not purchase their Hemp Bombs product through their online storefront, they must request a return, exchange, or refund from the distributor, not Hemp Bombs.
