The demand for edible oils – including vegetable, olive, palm and seed oils – continues to accelerate. Unfortunately, this can sometimes lead to accidental or deliberate malpractice within the supply chain, such as adulteration of raw ingredients or finished products, mislabeling of products, or environmentally unsustainable operations. That’s why [representative sampling](https://532305.hs-sites.com/ensure-high-quality-edible-oils-with-automatic-sampling) is critical to ensuring the safety and reliability of all edible oil products.

In December 2020, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published its final version of the updated Fuels Regulatory Streamlining rule, which takes effect in January 2022. Not meeting the new and current EPA regulations can result in hefty fines, as well as damage to the environmental and plant personnel. Protect your processes and prevent these costly risks with representative sampling.

Extracting and refining the cannabis plant into medication and edible products is uncharted territory for many cannabis-producing businesses. Cannabis products need to be consistent in composition and free of impurities that could negatively affect users’ health. Automatic sampling can help optimize sampling accuracy and repeatability in every step of the cannabidiol (CBD), hemp and cannabis extraction process, while ensuring a safe final product.
