In the future, the oils will be able to be sold as cosmetic products. However, we would much rather have a sensibly regulated CBD market.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What will change for customers?<\/h4>\n\n<p>Something will change for our customers in that we will no longer be able to offer<a href=\"https:\/\/www.herbadiberna.ch\/en\/cbd-oil\/\"> our strongest hemp oils<\/a> (30%, 35% and 40% CBD content) after September 2022. To produce an oil with such a high CBD content, the extraction process exceeds the THC limit for cosmetics. Even if this only affects the raw extract and not the finished product, such production would violate the law.<br\/>There are already solutions to this problem, but implementing them will take even longer than the six months that our producer had between the announcement of the denaturing obligation in April and its introduction in October.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The advantage More sustainable oils<\/h4>\n\n<p>However, we do not only have bad news, but something is changing for the better: In cooperation with<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swissextract.ch\/\">&#8220;Swissextract<\/a>&#8220;, an organic certified company, we will produce our oils up to 24% CBD content only with organically grown sunflower oil as a carrier. As a result, we are no longer dependent on imported coconut oil and can thus produce our oils exclusively from ingredients grown and processed locally in Switzerland.<\/p>\n\n<p>We are glad that we have found such a good solution to be able to offer high quality organic hemp oils also in the future.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-a89b3969 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.herbadiberna.ch\/en\/cbd-oil\/\">Stock up on CBD oils now!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The impending introduction of mandatory denaturation for hemp oils poses major problems for the cannabis industry.
