Industry Associations

We actively participate in and support established industry associations that promote responsible standards, science-led policy, and consumer protection across the hemp and cannabis sector. These memberships help us stay aligned with evolving best practices, regulatory developments, and quality expectations across Europe and Switzerland.

ARGE CANNA (Austria)

ARGE CANNA is an independent Austrian non-profit organization focused on medical cannabis. The association promotes education, patient support, and research, and advocates for improved access to cannabinoid-based therapies within a regulated framework.

We support ARGE CANNA to help advance patient-oriented initiatives and to stay closely connected to developments in medical cannabis standards and responsible policy discussions.

Our EIHA membership supports transparency, harmonised standards, and a stable regulatory environment for compliant hemp-derived products across Europe.

EIHA Novel Food Consortium

The EIHA Novel Food Consortium is an industry initiative created by EIHA to support science-based compliance pathways for hemp extracts intended for ingestion. The consortium coordinates safety work and regulatory submissions and has commissioned extensive toxicological studies on cannabinoids through specialised scientific partners.

We participate as co-founders and shareholders because we believe long-term consumer trust depends on robust safety data, responsible labelling, and clear regulatory alignment.
