The results of the test were shared exclusively with Business Insider. Wall Street analysts say CBD could be worth $16 billion by 2025.

Just three of them, or 15%, actually contained what the labels said, according to the results of the study exclusively shared with Business Insider.

On top of that, many of the tested products — which include vape cartridges, beverages, candies, and creams — contained dangerous gases like ethylene oxide and ethanol, which are especially harmful when heated and inhaled, according to the analysis. Based in Van Nuys, California CannaSafe uses state-of-the-art chromatographs to test cannabis products for things like potency, pesticides, heavy metals, and assorted microbes on behalf of what Riley said is over 700 clients, mostly smaller cannabis brands.

Things are steadily improving, however. Riley said that since his company started testing cannabis products in 2017, the failure rate has dropped dramatically, down from around 70% percent.around what is and isn't allowed in cannabis products earlier this year — and has mandated that products be tested in certified labs — CBD still exists in a legal grey area at the federal level.

Illicit, or 'black market' cannabis products still use lots of pesticides — it's cheaper and easier than growing cannabis the safe way, and there's no incentive to test illegal products.Some CBD brands have said they would welcome more regulatory clarity from the federal government. CBD existing in a federal gray area"isn't good for the industry or consumers," said Kerrigan Behrens, a former investment banker and cofounder and chief marketing officer of the Los Angeles-based Sagely Naturals, a CBD company.
